In this video we're resurrecting a sick iBook Clamshell Special Edition, which is a very special iBook indeed. It's the last and fastest of all the iBook Clamshells at 466Mhz, and the only one with FireWire and a stock DVD drive. That makes it the only Clamshell iBook to be officially Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger compatible.

Our iBook has a broken power jack, which requires disassembling the entire machine to get to. Fortunately, the DC-IN is on a daughter board, which we can replace without soldering. While we're in there, let's install a 60GB mSATA SSD using an IDE enclosure!
