Classic Battery
This is one of the questions that leads to another. I can't find the answer to these on the FAQ page. 1) How do I get to the battery in a Macintosh Classic? I hope I don't have to take the back off it. The FAQ has a link to batteries, be the page doesn't explain how to change the battery. Which leads to: 2) There is a small panel above the power switch. I removed it it hope of finding the battery there, but instead find a bunch of knobs and what looks somewhat like sound ports. -- http://homepage.mac.com/stmoody/ http://www.13idol.com/mac/macfacts.html Handgun crime in Britain has increased more than 40% since the handgun ban of 1997. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

In any case, yeah, you need to open up the case. Don't worry, its not that hard. Actually, I take that back. The Classic form factor is the single hardest compact to open. The top sticks. You gotta angle your toes in wierd erotic angles and yank the bejeezus out of it. The computer, that is. Once you have the case open its pretty easy. The Classic case is pretty neat inside. Standard disclaimers: do stuff at your own risk. I am not your mother. I am not very good at what I do, and certainly should not be advising anyone else. if you get your ass blown 12 miles high you probably deserve it for listening to me so you can't sue me. ie Perform at own risk.

The panel you found is the screen sizing and etc. adjustments. Jeff -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
