My dear father spilled some healthy herbal tea (he claims not much of it) on his wallstreet's upper left speaker/keyboard area He lifted the keyboard and said it all looked dry …

Herbal tea is only good for people (so they say...), not PowerBooks... You really should stick to CD's and battery acid (in the right places that is...) Salvage the HD, take it in …

I've spilled liquids plenty of times on my PowerBooks, but it's usually only on the keyboard which can easily be cleaned out. Contrary to what Cipher said, the problem is probably…

I did the same thing a few weeks ago on my Wallstreet, but it was coffee with lots of sugar added http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/frown.gif Unfortunately the repair center said t…

Just out of curiosity, what would a repair like this cost? (Spilled my chew cup onto the keyboard)

I did not need to know that. http://smilecwm.tripod.com/cwm2/puke.gif

Hey, at least it has an uhm.. new fresh smell

The reason I say its probably only a minor problem, is that in my experience, after spilling liquid on an electrical device, I just open it up and use a hair dryer (not a good idea…

I've seen this several dozen times in the Service Center where I work. Nine times out of ten, it's only the keyboard that shorts out requiring a simple dry-out and replacement of t…

Thanks for the advice...my dad sent it in to Apple for repair using his extended warranty. We'll see what they say -if they demand payment, which they might, he'll pay .Otherwise w…

Even if it is just the keyboard... "well, we needed to replace the logic board, and the ram too..." That will be $1300 thankyou... Cipher13

GOOD NEWS! The powerbook came back today with a new keyboard, working perfectly! No charge, courtesy of Apple Extended Warranty! My father is happy which means I'm happy too since…

hi, I want to hook up more than 1 monitor to my powerbook pismo. The first monitor I buy is a Sony Wega 21", the next one probably an apple studiodisplay (does anyone know if you c…

As far as I know the PowerBook will only support one extra screen but I'm waiting for someone to prove me wrong as usual!

Each monitor requires a video card.... powerbooks have only one.... My PB 300 can only do video mirroring and also the screen must be open because of heat issues... as for a seco…

2000 PowerBooks �CAN! drive two monitors at the same time. All you have to do is put the Pismo to sleep. Wait a good 15 seconds. Then attach the new monitor. And lastly open(wa…

I got a 256M upgrade from 1-800-memory and it was 2-2-2 and works perfectly in my Pismo. WhenI bought it 3 months ago they were way lower than anybody else at $189.

Avoid cheap RAM. It is often unreliable. This causes more crashes than anything else. I have had good experiences with Micron RAM. The price is low and the quality is incredible.
