The only thing that comes to mind is HD/ram sizes and CD drive speed, but what the various models' specs were I can't say without doing some serious digging into my archives for the original data sheets. Of course that's only of limited value anyway as the odds are high the 'Book has gotten some upgrades in the meantime anyhow. If the 'Book cannot be started, the processor will have a speed etched into it, but your question seems to imply you won't be able to disassemble it down to the LB. : -)

The 3400 series doesn't have model-variant specific badging (at least on any example I've ever seen.) >One note: If there isn't Ethernet on the back of it, then it will be one of >the few 180Mhz machines sold without Ethernet (the other models had it >standard) You are probably thinking of the strippo 3400/180 ethernet-only model which did not include a modem. AFAIK all 3400s came with at least ethernet on an internal comm card. Dan K -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
