Anybody know where to find the serial number on an iBook G3 laptop? My daughter's iBook has a problem with the screen going blank unless the top is in one particular (hard to view) position. I took it to a CompUSA repair place and for $139 they told me that the cable from the logic board to the display was bad but that they could not find a replacement part just for the cable and that to replace the logic board and cable would be close to $800!! We only paid $650 for it used two years ago so that is not an option. I found a web site which sells reconditioned parts. They have the cables for <$50 but the write up says there are cables from three different companies that only work with the LCD from that company. The web site tech support guy says if I can give him the serial # he may be able to figure out exactly which cable will work. I have looked at the iBook and can't find the f'n serial number. Any help would be appreciated.
