Discharging a Lithium Ion battery

Besides via the laptop itself (running till dead), anybody know any other ways to completely discharge a Pismo's Lithium Ion battery? I have a battery with ever-shortening life, and I normally run until the Pismo quits, then do a full charge. Last week, I did that, but then also slept the 'book e

SUMMARY: Lower slot RAM on PBG3/233

Lower slot RAM on PBG3/266

Can anyone point me to a guide on installing lower-slot RAM on a Powerbook G3 Series 233Mhz? I'm not sure how the proc card comes out to get to the lower slot. (And by the way - which PB is model M4753? Lombard or Wallstreet?) Thanks - Gene -- G-Books is sponsored by a

"blank" e-mails?

VST Expansion Bay HD - alternatives?

Like someone else who posted recently about the VST Expansion Bay 10GB hard drive, my shoplet.com order was just canceled; the e-mail says that the manufacturer is no longer making the item. SO - does anyone happen to have a summarized list of alternatives? Here's what I know so far (with approx

Pismo internal backup battery

Where's the best place to get the internal (PRAM) battery for a Pismo? Does Radio Shack carry an equivalent? Secondly, has anyone ever replaced one? Is it difficult? Anybody have any web links to the documented procedure? Thanks - Gene -- G-Books is sponsored by and...
