Hello,

I have this ibook G4 and i put linux on it, it work great but some website slow the machine a lot (like with javascript applet), 720p video is almost not working, and the machine is very hot, ventirad work a lot and often.

Would like to know if you think it worth to open it, change to a PATA SSD (32go Pata SSD should be ok ? or 64Go ssd better knowing the machine have now 64go hdd ?

Clean it,

change 512MB RAM to 1GO RAM.

I would like to use it as a normal computer,

but i would like it working good with consuming website (not very, just with a lot of aplet or like that), multiple browser pages open, etc..

There is a point you can't change a sows ear into a silk purse ;-}

I think you're hitting the limits of the CPU and GPU here. As good as the G4 was in its day, todays multicore CPU's are just so much better!

I'm happy to hear you are using Linux Vs Apples older OS's as they are not able to handle many web sites besides very easy to break into.

How about looking for a newer used system (Intel based) as I think you'll be happier in the long haul and will be less expensive that trying to goose this baby.
