Hi all,
My Pismo's battery life is now zero, so I'm in the market. Although I'm
in the UK, the most promising deals I've found so far are the high-

I have a heavily upgraded PowerBook G3 Pismo and was hoping to use
this as a server once I buy myself a new Mac mini :) The Pismo has a

the hard disk is the original 30Gb one. I was going to install MacOS

Things to consider:
1: you should dim the display entirely in case backlighting turns on
