<div>Hi Bill,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Not sure if you got my other email with the rest of the message (I hit send by mistake the first time). I'm clueless about Macs. I don't know about the difference between the two disc sets. the ram has been bumped up to 384 on this one so I guess it could handle the Tiger (I'll google that).
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I was hoping to get it to a state where I could load linux ubuntu on. The guy who runs Freegeek Vancouver ( <a href="http://freegeekvancouver.org/">http://freegeekvancouver.org/</a> ) said he has the same ibook and linux works excellant on it.

<div>Thanks again.<br><br> </div>
