I have a PowerBook 520 and I am having trouble with my batteries. Up until yesterday at least one of them worked, but now the one that worked before won't charge.

I think when I needed one of these I got it at Computer Renaissance. I don't know if they are still in business. Try computer parts. I didn't use a cable. I think it was a connector. On Thursday, April 15, 2004, at 02:27 AM, macnifico wrote: SCSI to mini-scsi (windoze laptop scsi). Anyone knows

Exactly. The fuser(I think it's a roller) was coated. You cannot get the crud off once it fused to it. You have to replace the fuser roller and that's the $250 part. so...it doesn't really pay to print on the back of paper you have already used, unless your printer is really designed to do that
