These past few weeks, I've been thinking of getting an external hard
disk so I can do a backup of the data stored in my iBook's hard
disk. My current iBook, a G3 800 (Dual USB) is slowly getting
cluttered, primarily with around 10 GB of audio files which is
synchronized with my iPod.
Then I chanced upon the sale of pre-owned Macs at ynzal.com courtesy of
a post at http://www.philmug.ph and jayvee's journal. When I saw
that they are offering a tangerine iBook with 30 GB hard drive, I
quickly called Ynzal and asked about the unit. The unit had a
hairline crack at its bezel but when I started testing it, it seems all
fine. So I paid for the unit and gone home happy.
Now I have a way of backing up my data (once I get my hands on either a
USB-to-USB cable or a crossed LAN cable. A big bonus on this is
my kid (the Geek-in-training on the front page) will no longer bug me
whenever he wants to play with his computer games!
