Thanks to https://www.pcbway.com for sponsoring this video.

Apple's full featured, yet tiny laptop, the PowerBook G4 12 Inch. Tiny enough to fit in your backpack, but powerful enough to edit your latest DV video!

Also, one of Apple's more challenging laptops to reach the hard drive, which of course we have to do!

Along the way we reinstall OSX 10.4 from USB using the Open Firmware method.

Please note, this video is for entertainment purposes only. Don't try any of this yourself.
