I'd recommend you don't ship one. The 40 odd pieces I pulled out of my 8100 weren't an anomaly.

They're exceptionally fragile these days (the 8100 shares the case), which is a problem. Not sure about the 8xx but you have to remove the entire logic board to swap/add RAM on the 8100.

DMMs are the way to go, really. Given the smallness of the market I'd suspect the analog ones are actually more likely to be inaccurate these days.

DVI-D is DVI - Digital. DVI - A is Analog. DVI - I supports both.

Which 1.33GHz iBook? The 12"? If it's that model of course it runs Leopard pretty well; it has a Radeon 9550 which is Core Image capable.

Leopard really needs 2GB of RAM or more to be happy if you're planning to use it.

10.5 will run like crap on that hardware. Stick with 10.4 and keep your expectations very, very modest.

400k 3.5"

Unplug the three prong cable from the adapter (but leave the other end connected to the wall), let it sit for a bit, then plug it in again.

1400's not a bad option either.

Is the firmware on the SCSI2SD up to date?

Likely bad PSU caps, logic board probably needs work too.

There's no PCI slot.  Nor is there a lot of room period. The hard drive sits on top of the optical drive, and the fan sits on top of that. 

Where would you even put it?  And no, there's no controller on the board. You'd need to use a USB external. 

Bleh, I had one not too long ago but got rid of it. I take it yours exploded?  I'm about 99% sure the Lombard hinge won't work. The chassis are very different. 

The Icebooks had keyboards that tended to smell like sweat socks after a while, yeah. 

All the white iBook G3's past 600MHz are time bombs. The GPU's will fail, just a matter of when. Clamshells are tough, but getting the hard drives out for replacement is not fun. I'd go for a PowerBook with good hinges. I have a Clamshell, a PDQ, and a Pismo. Pismo wins. :)

Odd, the CD versions are usually hard to find.

Keep in mind the Xserves have the Apple Drive Modules you have to work with, or hack new drives in. It's not like a Power Mac where you can just slap in any drive with a couple screws. 

The first gen Intel Xserves are pretty cheap right now AFAIK. A friend just got one and pressed it into service. Edit: said it was $80 shipped on eBay.
