Powerbook G4 667 questions about bluetooth and ... - 2007/11/09 15:53 I was wondering if I am able to install the following into my G4 powerbook 667:
+ Bluetooth
+ More RAM (currently at a Gig)
+ Combo DVD/CD super drive (DVD burner option)

Thanks

I have just purchased this laptop, so it is obviously used and I am a first time Mac user so any helpful hints would be appreciated.

Thanks

Re:Powerbook G4 667 questions about bluetooth and - 2007/11/09 19:00 All three of these questions -- Bluetooth, RAM, and optical drive -- are answered in the PowerBook G4 Q&A.

I hope this is helpful.

Re:Powerbook G4 667 questions about bluetooth and - 2007/11/09 21:33 Welcome to the wonderful world of Apple Macintosh and EveryMac.com.

Short answers are:

Yes
No
Yes

But read the Powerbook G4 Q&A for lots of good info on your Powerbook and if you have any more questions this is the best place on the interweb.....

What do you think of your new Powerbook so far ?

I'm always curious about new Mac uses first impressions of their Mac and the OS.

Re:Powerbook G4 667 questions about bluetooth and - 2007/11/10 14:22 Well I just picked it up and I am not too sure yet, I am having issues navigating, but I am sure that will come with time. I was wondering if I am able to connect to the internet wirelessly with it, I have the airport thing (sorry for the technical jargon). I also did look through the Q&A section and found nothing about how to go about or where to get a bluetooth module, or if I even can get (I know about the dougle, but I was looking for the internal types).

To use Bluetooth on your machine it is necessary to go by way of a D Link DBT-120 USB Dongle, as it was not standard until the 867 PowerBook. Here is a link to the list of PowerBooks and Bluetooth availability.

Check out the Apple web site for Bluetooth, starting with:-
