Also contrary to what MacMac says, the 4.5v PRAM battery is readily available one-clcik away at RadioShack.com which has been posted numerous times on this site. While he is right you can make your own ... but, Radio Shack is an international company with stores in Europe and you should be able to mail order one no matter where you live and I would rather have the correct thing to properly fit in my Mac if it is available for a reasonable price. I think it's time to make a STICKY out of the PRAM Battery Info.

You are totally right, I had completely forgotten about the RadioShack batteries. I think I'll pick up one of those myself at some point in the near future.

As for the monitor interferance - I had the same problem with my Plus when it was running next to a Performa Plus display - the picture was slightly unsteady with some distortion at the edge nearest the other monitor. After moving the Plus furthur away it was fine.
