I just took the system out into the garden and gave it a good clean, it was very dusty, it's surprising how much dust a computer can accumulate but a few squirts of 300bar compressed air soon get rid of it all.

Now it looks like this.


(the grubiness on the side panel isn't visible normally, the flash has made that more obvious. It's where ones fingers naturally pull on the case when putting the side back on).

Nice. In a pedantic sort of way the Apple logo should really be on the side, but if you can't normally see that then the top will do.

I've always wanted to try out a mac but no one I know has one and I can't justify buying more computer bits

I think when it comes time to get a new laptop, might look into the macbooks since I don't really do anything much with it at the moment.

why not just do what Mr Feekles has done and install it on a spare machine or partition if you have one

As a Mac Fanboy i think what youve done is really shocking...

What youve done is made me consider a HackPro as my next new computer, i miss the option/ability to overclock the CPU and tweak the ram and stuff.

10.5.4 is out, get it while it's hot.



Straight from software update, no tweaking needed
