Hey gang,

Can anyone tell me whether I can transplant a 32-bit CardBus PCMCIA
card cage from a G3 'Book into a 2400c?

They are not the same part.  AT the very minimum you would need to
make a custom wiring harness, and that assumes the cages use the same
controller chip.

MCE charges $99 for Cardbus-enabling a 2400c. I doubt that any shop would bother to do it if it's at all complicated or time consuming. I gotta believe it's something super simple to do with proper tools, and a card cage transplant sure fills that bill. I have a hunch the card cages use the same controller; if so, how hard/expensive to make that harness?

Sometime in the not-too-distant future I'll be disassembling a Comet for a case mod project. While I have it opened up might as well max out any and all possible upgrades....
