I'm running 9.1 on my 1400 with a G3 233mhz NuPower card. No problems so
far. Its been 3 days now, I switched for compatibility with my Jag equipped

Thanks John, that's awesome to hear.
Now, the question is, where do I get OS 9.1? Is this something I have to buy or is
it downloadable yet? I know -- that's a stupendously lazy question of me. =-)

The catch inside the foot itself is broken, that's why it won't stay

Hi, all,
I happily received a new replacement battery for my 1400cs this week

couple of times of charging, discharging and recharging for it to reach
full capacity. I'll describe problems below and try to be brief. I

Hey Dana et. al.,
Yes, fortunately, I just received it and the battery has a year warranty, so if
this turns out to be a big waste of my time I can return it. Whew!
I am being patient with the process... Every time I put the new battery back in
to charge I am getting more white bars at first...

As mentioned, I'm new to Powerbooks also; veyeran colleagues are consistent
in mentioning the power manager reset button (on the back of the unit), if
that helps you at all. Worst comes to worst, surely eBatts would offer you

Hello,
I'm a little confused with your problem... I have 'white bars' appear in the
