BEAUTIFUL!!

THAT'S JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!

Was the paint airbrushed on and then glossed over?

I love modding my gadgets (see Titanium P800 or Tahiti MGF)

Let me know, (now if only I had an iBook)

The paint job cost me $60 Kiwi (around $35 US) :D

It was around 3 coats of black, plus 2 clear coats airbrushed on. He laquered the finish for me too. It was sooo cheap, its just cos he hasn't started his company yet.

hey snitch

you could use that mod for the color sheet and make it red (make the apple on the back red)--> iBook U2 edition  :laugh:

you know that mod by steveFC

Im thinking about this. Its ALOT more labour intensive than i think any of you could possibly realise. You basically pull the computer down to its lowest form, it takes alot of care not to break anything.

BTW if you live in NZ and want this done, PM me and i'll see what I can do. If your outside NZ, im sure you could ship to me, and i could get it done much cheaper than the US $400 job colorware rip off. :D

Wow, that looks amazing  :cool:  :D

More....pics.....please....  :pinch:

Note how the edge of the lid framing the screen is white. My friend originally forgot to paint it as he had the lid face down when he sprayed it. I was gunna take it back for him to finish, but ended up just sanding the edge smooth white. It actually looks real nice.

Also, teh tabs on teh keyboard i forgot to get painted. :pinch: But, im getting them done, dont worry :)

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
