Ram = 1 G

oWa~~~

Finally, after 4 years or so, I upgrade the memory of my ibook G4 from 768 to 1280. The reason for me to do it is that I cannot stand the speed of running certain developing IDE on my computer, for example, Eclipse and Netbeans. Anyways, after this, I hope that I will enjoy a more friendly developing environment, although deep in my mind I know that descent speed is impossible.

Upon the survey of choosing the Ram, I discovered several facts:
  1. The maximum of G4 is 1.5 Gb
  2. Changing Ram doesn't affect the warrenty, although mine is gone long time ago
  3. It's pretty easy to change the Ram on your own. Just follow the guidance here: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/iBook-G4-12-Inch/RAM/83/4/Page-1/Battery
Voila!! My ibook with 1280 Mb ram is ready.
