I had a double take on the title. Burn!

Installed version 4 but the LC520 ( OS 7.6.1 ) does down when Toast 4 is launched. Is there a Toast 3 or 2 somewhere ?

HAHAH At the screen! That is soooo cool! It looks like confetti.

Well, my Portable is back to its old tricks: Power on, chime, die. Doesn't matter what I unplug from the logic board, I can't even get it to do what it did yesterday (power up, sp…

Update: After storing it with both batteries removed for a couple days, I have gotten a little further: So before, when I had all power unplugged for a few minutes, it would start…

Sorry, I missed the Kanga part somehow and had it in my head that it was a 3400c. Still, for $12 you can't go far wrong. Click to expand... For almost all intents and purposes …

It's been left plugged in for several days and exhibits the same behavior (and consistently loses date/time settings, which is pretty much a guaranteed sign of PRAM battery failure…

Erratic and observable power-related behaviour is characteristic of backup battery failure in nearly every single iteration of the PowerBooks, though the early ones (1xx series) se…

One more problem...the battery holds a good charge, but the machine won't boot from it after sitting unplugged for a half hour. However it will boot from the battery if I unplug th…

I picked up two Kanga G3 Powerbooks in working condition and with a brand new "yo-yo" Power adapter recently for next to nothing. I sold one and am currently working on refurbishin…

I've got a Kanga G3 Powerbook which I picked up recently for essentially nothing. It's running 9.1 and its RAM is maxed out. The battery even holds a 2+ hour charge. I've got it co…
