Nah! Too much trouble to drive an LCD & I need the Power adapter, mobo, lid, LCD-n-Cable from a PB for the hack.

However, you can add a USB CardBus card to a Wallstreet PowerBook G3 (which has serial, ADB, SCSI, but no built in USB or FireWire). Alternatively, you can buy a Griffin iMate (USB -> ADB adaptor) and use it on any USB Mac.

You should know me better than that!, I've already got a couple of iMates, mate!

'sides, I've got an ADB peripheral whose pedigree precludes its adaptation to anything as pedestrian as a mere PRODUCTION PB mobo!

Thanks for the Wallstreet info tho! :b&w:
