Morning, all. I've had my 12 G4 PB for about a month, now. I'm very happy with it, even though my battery life has become questionable with the 10.2.8 update... I've noticed that, when running on battery, it seems the sound subsystem gets turned off, but wakes up when a sound event gets

I never coil mine up (that is the design flaw) and have had no problems with it in the last two years and I have two of them. Tom I just think that, overall, the design of the Yo-Yo was flawed, IMO. If you've had good luck with yours, that's great! But, I still think the design was flawed.

Hello, I recently purchased a GigE 667 Tibook with a backlighting problem and broken hinges. The backlighting is under control, now its time to work on the hinges. They have the classic syndrom of snapping off, so I assume part of them are stuck inside the powerbook display. How do I go about

Pretty tricky operation. I replaced a hinge by peeling the side of the screen open (just the border) and took out the broken pieces. screwed a new hinge in and knocked carefully the peeled border back. It is a little-bit bubbled now, but works great. Use a heavy glue to keep the frame together
