For older PowerBooks, there are utilities that do this. However, I did some checking, and it seems that Lithium-ion batteries (which G3 Series uses) aren't susceptible to the so-called memory effect. I guess I was confusing BR 2.0 with those older utilities (such as BatteryAmnesia, which used to be a real life-saver). So (to Jeremy or whoever) what does exactly does Battery Reset "reset" then?. Couldn't find any technical data on that front. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
