Hi all,

I'm newbie here and Mac system and have questions about upgrading a powerbook system I just bought. It's a 12" 1Ghz and 768mb RAM with superdrive, and 40GB hard drive. I just called Apple store to ask regarding upgrade the hard drive into 80GB and what they said to me was it's not possible and I was just wondering if it's true cause I saw lots of vendor are selling hard drive for upgrade and they says on the site that it's meant to use with powerbook from 867mhz and up. Also is ut possible to upgarde the video memory?. So if anyone can give me directions or advice on upgrading this that would be great and I really appreciate the infos.

Yes, you can upgrade it. However, it will void the warranty of your hard drive, and if you break anything else in the process of installing the hard drive, that won't be under warranty either. You can find how to take apart your Powerbook from the Apple Service Manual, found here.

Or, you can buy the hard drive and have it installed at an Apple Store or Apple Service Center, for I believe around $30.

And you cannot upgrade video memory, it is mounted directly on the logic board.
