Does this mean that an LC475 will not put out any video without a PRAM battery? The local Goodwill Store has an LC, LC II, and LC475. Each for $14.95. I've been thinking about picking up the 475, but all it does is chime into a blank screen. Will a new PRAM battery fix that most likely? I can't swap one from the other LCs to test, they both boot into 1956. Is it a 3.6V battery? Maybe next time I go I'll bring 3 1.2V NiMHs taped together to test it out. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
