[Duo2400] Using a duo ac adapter on an iBook

I was thinking of giving my wife an extra Duo A.C. adapter I have lying around to use with her iBook. She has to travel frequently and the clear-orb-thing takes up way too much room. I know the plug will fit, but will it cause any damage? The model number is M2693. Thanks in advance Lee -

Last night I was covering a conference and came down with a serious, nail-biting case of envy when another reporter plugged in his Sony Vaio. My god, it was so tiny. Thankfully, anything that runs Windoze gives me a rash. But it got me thinking about how many people are migrating to the Titan

According to what my adapter's say on the back: 2400c M4328 36W 24V 1.5A Duo M7783 24V 1.04A Duo M2693 24V 1.5A Pismo/iBook M7332 45W 24V 1.87A So there is a difference in the adapters, with the Frisbee type having a bigger power rateing. I would expect the others wou

If it's working - why replace it? I'll keep both my 2400c and my Pismo for as long as they will run. Selling any old 'puter is a loss anyway, so it's better to buy yourself a larger switch and make a lot of stand-alone units (a Duo could make a great sequencer or surfboard or what-have-you). Any

Sounds like the prototype I made up next to a 2400 and Pismo for size. Note the clicker, 2400 size keyboard and small footprint. Not just a sized down Ti, but one that is an upgraded 2400, with a reasonable battery life. www.cacanne.com/PismoTiSub on 2/14/01 20:13, Mike Friese at [EMAIL PROTECTE

Then I guess my question is-What importance is the watt rating when you decide on an adapter? If the iriginal was 45W, how does a 24W power supply work with your powerbook? Will this lack of watts shorten the life of the supply, or will it shorten the life of the powerbook? Tom on 2/14/01 20:58, [

I definitely would not replace my 2400c/G3 with a Ti-book. I'd rather paint mine silver. But I would definitely replace it with a Ti-book jr. Size is the factor. I don't need a 15.2" display. Even an 11.3" (but widescreen) would suffice. I doesn't even have to be a G4. Just an updated G3 (
