Re: Powerbook 1400 upgrade

I upgraded a PB1400cs/133 with a Sonnet 400/1mb. It
worked fine for me.

 Geoff,
 Thanks for pointing out Sonnet's official response.
 They posted these
 support comments AFTER I purchased and installed
 the Crescendo G3 333 in
 my PB 1400c/166.
 
 However, I am still somewhat skeptical, since I
 purchased my Crescendo G3
 upgrade in December 2000 from MacMall. I do not
 recall whether the chip
 designation was PBG3B, or not.
 
 Do the Crescendo G3 400 MHz have the same problems
 in a 1400c 166??
 
 Like you, I planned that the upgrade was going to
 be fun..
 
 Bob

I'm pretty happy with my Sonnett upgrade.

Of course, I'm using a 133 machine, but the upgrade was painless and has 
worked flawlessly.

smiles,
Jamie

Powerbook 1400 upgrade

2001-08-28 Thread Geoffrey

http://www.sonnettech.com/support/techtips/cpbtt01.html

This is Sonnets offical view of this problem, seems they are saying 
only effects the early 512's, I was going to use the  400 1mb . Does 
this really make a difference or as I asked before do the problems 
still keep going no matter what model 512 or 1 gig .
Thanks
Geoff
