How to replace an iBook G4 backlight
51NOTE:
This is a cut down version of a 16 minute video; due to YouTube's 10 minute limit I had to leave out a lot of relevant details. I've applied to be a YouTube Partner so that I can upload longer videos, but it's unlikely that my application will be accepted anytime soon. So until then I apologize in advance for having to truncate my content.
Tutorial applies to the following computer:
12.1 Inch Apple iBook G4
