Personally, if you're looking for a notebook that'll be useful and compatible with the modern world, I'd go for a PowerBook G3 or later. These machines can be had for under $200 no…

If you're really set on either the 2400 or Kanga, here's a quick breakdown (since I've got both):
Differences:
The 2400 has a 40MHz bus, the processor (180 or 240MHz) is on a rep…

A well-oiled windows machine will run pretty decently. I just bought Windows XP Pro for this machine I just built, just so I could have windows. Sure, I can run all my apps perfe…

Yes, actually, I think you are.

Yes. In fact I'd say you just risked getting stoned, and I don't mean like a hippy. I have Windows NT4 for the Powe…
If things fall through with the 1400, I'll consider it. Seems like there are a ton of resources out there for the 1400, but to my understanding, most of them apply to the 2400 as w…
Well, if things turn out as planned, I will have a Powerbook 1400c (166mHz 64 RAM) and a Lucent WaveLAN silver.

How about a PowerBook G3? That way, you'll be able to use a newer OS and printer with it. I have often run into a few issues with older systems and hardware/ software compatibility…

That crashing sound you hear is the sound of Windows breaking.
No, I didn't throw my ThinkPad through one. Microsoft Windows ju…
Batteries are going to be an issue since only brand new ones (on wallstreet G3s anyway) do 3 hours and used ones that still work will likely get you an hour or so.
You can use 2 b…

I just need something that I can use at school, without worrying about it getting damaged or anything like that. I was thinking along the lines of a 3400C, or even a PowerBook G3. …
All of Trash80toG4's threads on the subject were lost in the Great Crash. I just hope that one day he googlestalks himself and winds up back here, with all of his notes intact.

You are right, it isn't 2/3. I think it is 4/5AA, which you can get fairly readily. Check the measurement of the cells listed here against the originals when you open up the batter…

I tried re-celling mine with AA-sized, tabbed NiMh cells but could not make them fit. The OEM cells were smaller (2/3 AA, I believe you call them), and after a struggle, I located …
