Re: Yo-yo failures

Re: Yo-yo failures

The yoyo power adapters are lousy and poorly designed. I'm on my 2nd one for my Pismo in 2 years. The first one started sparking at the Powerbook end about 14 months after I got my Pismo. Then it failed completely. The cord going to the Pismo is way too flimsy and fragile... Nick on 11/2/

Yo-yo failures

For the second time in less than a year, I've just received a replacement yo-yo adapter from Apple for my graphite iBook (SE). Two now have developed shorts or some other defect that prevents the iBook from getting a charge (no green or orange light at the computer's power-input; one can even see s

Wallstreet - help separating HD from cage

Morning. Want to test a Wallstreet HD. But unable to remove the HD from the cage that holds it. Four screws though tightly fixed, turn freely when one tries to undo them. Is there a trick to this? Is there a reason one can't separate the HD from the cage? Regards, Marc -- G-Books is sponso
