Kris I'm puzzled that you are having heat problems. My Wallstreet (266 Mhz, OS 9.2.2 4Gb HD) stays cool enough so that the fan doesn't come on. I have heard that you shouldn't use them on a soft surface like a pillow and I have noticed that it gets warm on my lap but I've never noticed any problems with the operation. Good luck with the Wallstreet, it's the last of the serial port powerbooks. -- Andrew King Ann Arbor Michigan technology is the answer, what was the question? -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
