Does anyone know if there's a hack (shareware or freeware) that allows you
to connect the new iBooks to an external monitor and run them with the lid
closed? I'm not looking for an extended desktop, just something that would
allow me to have it closed and use it with an external
Hi, I'm using an IBM Travelstar in my pismo. The model number on the drive
is DJSA-230...and it's kind'a noisy (relative to what I'm used to of
course). I notive the difference considerably when the drive spins down
when I'm watching a dvd. Even if it's connected to a moniter and I'm across

The DJSA-230 is a model 30GT - no liquid bearings.

That actually made me happy. I can have a quieter drive in this thing!
WOOHOO! I'm looking at the 40GN models at OWC. I may just go for the 30GB
and use the noisy one I have now as a backup drive in an external firewire
case.
Battery Reset 2.0 has nothing to do with battery conditioning, nor with
battery 'memory'. Battery Reset only affects very specific PowerBooks
and iBooks, and only affects these if they refuse to see the battery at
all (showing a red 'x' on the menu bar).
So is there something else that will
I noticed something when I was putting a 128MB SODIMM I had laying around in
my pismo. (firewire powerbook G3). There's a little fan right inside the
vent on the left. I say I just noticed it because I've never heard any
noise coming from that side of the machine, and I've put my finger near
Does anyone know a good source for replacement batteries for my pismo? I
get a little less than 3 hours on my battery now and I was wondering if I
could get a new one that lasted longer. What are my choices and where
should I look? How much do they usually cost? Do they have new types of
No it [orinico cards] is INcompatible with OSX, though some people have gotten
them to work.
So what cards would you suggest? Something not too expensive. Is there an
advantage to getting an airport card (for my pismo) and using it with an
access point other than the airport base station?
So what kind of base station (other than airport) would any of you suggest
using with the orinico cards? Do the cards and the base stations not have
to match? I want to use my pismo wirelessly and have my father be able to
use his compaq laptop (I told him not to get it) wirelessly also.
Okay, so in OS X in a pismo with a dvd drive...can I watch dvd's? I haven't
tried because it's not with me this week (left it with a friend). Do I need
that hacked version of dvd player?
Thanks,

Hi List:
just wanted to chime in here -- I have a Lombard 333/192 RAM/ 20 gig HD

WOOPS! That was meant for Matt Reiff. Sorry!!

Hey, you didn't, by any chance, go to Stuyvesant High School did you?

Someone a while ago gave me a service manual for a firewire G3 PB. I
checked the URL and it gave a link to apple's FTP site. Last I checked,
then, file
Does the vga port on the back of pismos work straight with a regular
monitor? Or do you need an adaptor? Also, is it only for video mirroring?
Or can you actually have an extended desktop.
I apologize about my naïve questions about g-books. I'm just ordering one
today and I haven't worked
(sorry, the message that I'm replying to isn't quoted here because I
accidentally deleted it)
Would the machine run faster off of a 7200 rpm ATA-100 firewire drive (than
when booted off of the internal 4200 RPM drive). I would think it would.
Has anyone done this? Is there a significant
Hi, I just joined the list :-)
Concerning Pismos and iBooks (366/466 clamshell models):
A) What's the real max RAM? Someone on ebay said he put 1024MB of RAM in
the Pismo 400 he's selling, while the apple spec database says the max is
512. And is the iBook's supposed max is 320...?
B) I know
B) I have the following for my expansion bay:
DVD-ROM
SuperDisk
Zip 250
10 gig harddrive
DVD-ROM/CD-RW
Not to mention, the obligatory extra battery... :)
What kind of hard drive is it? And what type of adaptor thingy do you
use/would you recommend?
P.S. Does anyone use such Pismos
I actually use both on my beige G4 400 (newertech zif). I was asking as
compared to other machines (should have been more specific)
Thanks :-)

P.S. Does anyone use such Pismos (the 400Mhz model)
in OS X with photoshop
and illustrator (7 and 10 respectively)? If so how
