I've used the services of PowerBook Parts a few times, when I had my Wallstreet. They're very professional, their prices are among the best and I always had a great experience with them. I recommend them. I have no other affiliation with them other than being a very satisfied customer. BTW, I did read a few posts in comp.sys.mac.portables from a guy in Toronto called, I think, the "Laptop Doctor" or the "PowerBook Doctor". He was offering the same services than PowerBook Parts. If you could find him, maybe it would be cheaper and faster? I don't have any experience with him, though... -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] BUAG // n.: [abbreviation, from alt.fan.warlord] Big Ugly ASCII Graphic.
