Could someone loan me a prismo/lombard G3 powerbook battery? just as a quick test to see if my powerbook is shagged or the battery and PRAM are just flaked ? I'd love to find out before I send the unit in for what will most likely be an expensive repair. Really need to decide if I want to spend money upgrading and fixing this unit, or buying a new one. Oh and if anyone has a cdrom or dvdrom I can borrow at the same time, that'd be excellent! Thanks, James
