How to Play ROMs on iPhone (4 Steps)
Launch Cydia and add the following 'Repository': 'http://thebigboss.org". To add a repository, launch 'Cydia' and click on 'Manage' then 'Sources.' On that screen, click 'Edit' (top right screen) and then 'Add' (top left). Let the application reload after it adds the source.
Click on 'Sections' in Cydia and look for 'Emulators.' Tap on that and you will see emulators for the original Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance and Sega Genesis. The iPhone will not handle any other ROMs because of graphical issues. Install the emulator of your choice and let it download and install.
Connect the iPhone to the computer and close out of iTunes if it is set to pop up. Download the free program iPhone Browser (see Resources below). This will allow you to see all the hidden files on your iPhone. Launch this application after it installs and use it to navigate to /private/var/root/Media/ROMs/. Copy any ROMs you have downloaded (there is a site to download ROMs in the Resources section) to this location under whatever folder the ROM is for. If it is a Gameboy Advance ROM, you will copy it to the folder 'Gameboy Advance Roms.'
Disconnect your iPhone and launch your emulator application. If you put the ROMs in the correct folder, it will detect them and you can play them. Some of the emulators will even allow you to play the game with the iPhone in landscape (sideways) mode.

How to Replace the Hard Drive on an Aluminum Macbook Pro
Shut down the MacBook Pro and disconnect all cables and devices. Allow the computer to cool for 10 minutes before moving to the next step.
Remove the 10 screws that secure the bottom case. The short screws must be removed at an angle. To view the angles, review Page 38 of the MacBook Pro manual (see Resources). Tape each screw to a piece of paper that indicates their original position in the computer case. Lift the case off and put it out of the way.
Touch your finger to a metal surface on the computer’s interior to discharge static electricity that may be present in your body.
Remove the two screws that hold down the bracket that holds the hard drive in place. Tape the bracket and the screws to the second sheet of paper.
Pull up on the tab coming from under the hard drive to lift it from the drive bay. Use a gentle, steady motion.
Disconnect the connector from the drive by pulling the connector as you grip the drive on the left side.
Remove the mounting screws from this disk drive if the replacement drive does not include them. Insert the mounting screws on the replacement hard drive.
Push the hard drive connector into the replacement drive on the left side.
Lower the replacement hard drive into the hard drive bay, copying the angle at which you removed the old hard drive.
Place the bracket over the hard drive and use the screws to secure it.
Position the lower case on the computer and replace the screws, using their alignment on the paper to find the correct location.
Press the Power button and allow the MacBook Pro to start up.
