Especially since the lister in need only needs a PRAM battery and the cable from it to the PMU. With patience, the right 3400c, with a smashed/non-working LCD or something, could be found for around the $40-$50 range. Maybe even a non-externally damaged unit, with a "mystery problem." I sometimes roll the dice on those, usually with positive results. I would be wary of "I don't know what's wrong with it" auctions from places that sell many Apple computers, though. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo Ivy F., AL "Roll Tide!"
