Yeah, that was really the only problem, whenever I was moving them around :beige:
With the Pismo, (and this is the only time I've experienced this) The system couldn't find the time server.. Had to go out and get a new one from the Apple site. However, all the other machines 8.6, 9.2.2 and 10.4.11 haven't had this yet. Now that the G3 is in its permanent spot, it will be good. The G4 might be migrating soon, as the imac. The problem with leaving the G4 and imac plugged in, is that they are in the basement with knob and tube wiring and it scares me a little to leave anything drawing current down there unattended. (besides a lowly clock radio)
I think I seen someone solder a 3xAAA battery compartment into the original battery slot, however this is a little more than I'm willing to do and 4.5v =/= 3.6v so that scares me a little too. But if the time and date is really all that battery controls, not even worth it. So what if the computer thinks its 1956 for a few minutes? hehe! }
