We moved from Singapore with beloved G5 PowerMac with us. It's only took a week or so and then arrived home in Weymouth. Guess what? we heard rattling sound from the machine. Instead of putting on we decided to investigated those source of sound. The problem came when we realised that was from under motherboard. And yes we had to take apart our machine.


Based from the mark on the chasis, we reckoned this been apart quite long time. The other problem how to found pad that can be glue them into it's place. We searching on net but found nothing. Then I was down to local computer shop to get some advice. He said to put bits string and keep it on the pcb. And yup we've done that, put that little heat sink on, put all together and tested it. It failed. The machine still generated heat, so knocked apart again. This time it worked perfectly. So yes..we had little bit fun with the G5.
I am looking forward for the 13.3in Intel MacBook. I will post review about the black machine. It has a good review from Leo Laporte -a guy who responsible on MacBreak videocasting and tWIT podcasting.
