Anyone > care to comment on that? I only ever use one card at a time, and I always put it in the top slot. But I'll try some combinations and see what happens. So far I've been successful with all the cards I've ever used in it. > From: "Alex Dumitru" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Installing new OS on a PB5300 I used localtalk to take my 5300 from 7.5 to 8, 8.5 and then 8.6. It does take a VERY long time. Hours and hours.

I am so glad! Yeah, that was us, too. We were imagining all kinds of terrible problems. Someone above mentioned hard drive problems, and we considered that, too. We call this procedure the "drastic hard reset", and it has saved us several times now. I'm just curious, but what were you doing with the powerbook before it gave a the green light? In one case, I had left the powerbook asleep in my knapsack for too long, and in another, there was a storm and the power went out while I was using the ac adapter with a very low battery. The book put itself to sleep, and then I couldn't wake it up. > From: THE ROCK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Netscape Communicator 4.79 vs Communicator > 4.8 > > Which is more stable.

I find it much better than either of the browsers you mentioned. There are things that irritate me about IE and NS both, althought sometimes I do use IE. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
