Huh, that's interesting. I guess the BTI battery for some reason is machine
specific. I thought it was strange. But non-Apple parts usually have little
idiosyncrasies. Sorry for the mis-information (but if anyone has a BTI
battery for a Duo 230, I can confirm that it really won't work in a 280 or
2300c!). And I agree, we need people like you who know what they're talking
about on this list!
Cheers,
