PBFixit is now iFixit
One of my favorite
Mac sites, PBFixit, has been renamed iFixit. iFixit provides parts
and great step-by-step repair and upgrade tutorials for the Mac mini, Powerbook G3 (233-500mhz), iBook G3
(300mhz-900mhz) and iBook G4 (800mhz-1.42GHz), plus the titanium and aluminum PowerBooks. The tutorials are fully
illustrated and, best of all, include pages that allow you to keep track of all the screws and parts you remove, in
order. iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens had this to say about the name change: "Why are we changing names? A few reasons. The first: iFixit sounds cooler. Secondly, Apple is discontinuing the PowerBook name and we want to stay relevant to all Mac owners. But most important, we want to keep our options open. Our team is working incredibly hard to improve our product line and develop the Fixit Guide series."
Check out iFixit if you haven't. They're a very good resource.

This site is the best. I've brought two wallstreets, a Lombard, and a Pismo back to life thanks to them (and the apple support forums)!
