Well, I had to buy a DC-In board per diagnosis of iMacC2D/600, since that was the original area of problems. The machine I was told ran fine off the battery, it just wouldn't charge or power up. I removed the piece that was in the jack, but all the DC plug does is glow orange. no green.

I ordered the piece and it should be here in a few days. If it doesn't work, I will offer the parts up for sale (or the whole laptop) and everything works, trackpad/keyboard/Super Drive/HDD, Screen. it would just be the logic board shot, but at this point anything can happen. I could throw that dc in board in and the machine mysteriously power up.

I have attached the picture of the PowerBook G4. Looks nice after I bent most of the case back into shape.

It looks nice now, it just needs a little TLC.
