Use a small coin to twist the latch to point the little dot to the open-padlock position, then you can lift the battery out.

IRRC when you have the machine flipped over it slides fully left to be open, the battery should pop up a little, if not flip the machine back and it should drop out. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
