When I get back to the USA will I be able to connect my 5300 to my
*new* 3400 SCSII to SCSII to transfer files?
Yes, Cliff, but tricky (slightly). Better to burn a CD or use ethernet if
they're available. Apart from which, it'll be not much faster than
ethernet; the 5300's SCSI is slow and the

I have managed to convince my father to purchase an older PB rather than some
old PC laptop he spied at a local used PC shop. Now, of course, I have to help
him find one. He can only afford to spend about $450 USD. I thought that the
best option would be a PB 3400, which one can find on

I replaced the exhausted cells of my original PB 145 battery with new
NiMH cells, with several advantages: the original NiCd cells were rated
at 1300 mAh ( or 1.3 Amp/hour ), while today's NiMH cells of the
same physical size are capable of 2000 mAh output. It's a matter of

Hi!
I was trying to revive an old Apple PowerCD to use
with my 5300, and was
looking for a power adapter. The service manual

No they don't charge the same. You can expect the NiMH cells to take
longer to charge using a charger 'designed' for NiCd, but the charger
won't harm your NiMH cells, and
they'll charge up just fine. I've been doing this for three years
regulasrly with
NiMH AAA cells for my PalmPilot, and they
Care to share with us who may choose to partake in this intrepid adventure
where to find such replacement cells, and does this include the spot
welding techniques discussed before in this forum, or more simple

How many rewrite cycles are these flash cards rated for? If one uses them
for VM, which is frequently rewritten, might one not eventually run into
the rewrite cycle limit problem?

Well, looks like they finally posted all right. I sincerely hope that
this information is useful to those of you doing Unholy Things to your
precious babies. I harbour no fear of operating on my own stuff, because
I've never had much faith in warranties to start with, because the machines
are old

I would like to post information on building a car power adaptor,
Martin,
I'm interested. But, would not an ordinary inverter like ones used in
RV's work?

Unless I'm completely misunderstanding something, what Jim says here isn't
right, and Janice is right to be concerned about polarity. Reversing
polarity is a good way to fry things, last I heard, and not all devices use
the same polarity. Best to be certain you've got it right before you plug
The PB 3400 is definitely the machine of choice in that price range for a
beginner. And there may still be a dutch auction on ebay for a unit that
might be possible for $350. This leaves $100 for RAM.
Now, doktorboring has mentioned in another post that he feels pressed at
even 64MB. I

Isn't this list great for finding out all the information you need?
