Can anyone give me some pointers on installing a new hard drive into my
Lombard? I would appreciate any help.

The Trans Intl site has some good info on putting hard drives and RAM
into the G3 Powerbooks. I used it before adding both to my Pismo.
The hard drive installation page is here:

Good luck.

I have half a gig of ram in my Pismo and running system 9.1 for now. Is
there any consensus yet about the G4 upgrade and the overheating issue. I
installed Finalcut Pro and plan to get a firewire external drive (any recs?)
so I can learn to edit a movie that I plan to shoot.

I am totally satisfied with the G4 upgrade. It runs cooler than before,
my fan hardly ever kicks in. I also run a few programs at a time, fcp,
dvd studio pro, photoshop, illustrator etc... it does get warm when
editing video, but not near as hot as it used to get. I'm running jaguar,

Thanks for your thoughts about OSX, but that didn't answer my questions..

Is there anyway to get rid of the smiling face before the startupsplash
screen?

No, no that I am aware of. Other than going to OS-X 10.2.x The startup
splash can be changed...

One can do some mucking about in the System file, using resedit and change

I definitely hear you. I've been a Mac user since OS 6, and also have

The main reasons to upgrade to OSX are really about convenience and

The problem is that the PCMCIA adapter doesn't 'handle' anything at all.
It is essentially the 'drive cable' connecting the Smartcard to the Mac.
