I'm in the unlucky group of people that has a fabrication defect in the graphic card of the iBook (http://www.apple.com/support/ibook/faq/)... therefore, i'm in the need of sending my iBook to Apple for changing the logic board, well, it's all free of charge, not a big problem... Anyway, i need to back up my data, 'cause a friend of mine with the same problem told me that he had lost all his files, and, well, I prefer to avoid this problem... My home folder is quite big, more than 3 GB, so, it would be better to copy it on a DVD; my iBook doesn't have it, but i have one one my Pc. Is it possible for me to connect the iBook to the pc (not connected to internet), just to burn the DVD, or you suggest me to use, i.e., carbon copy cloner or other backup app?
thanx in advance
 
If there is an Apple company store in your vicinity, they will happily backup your iBook data, send your iBook to Austin, and restore your data when the iBook returns. I believe they do charge a minimum service fee of $60 for the backup and restore, but sending the iBook in and the repairs are, of course, free. It is not a bad alternative.
