Hi,

Well, I got these a couple days ago, and:

I have copied all old files and restored the OS to factory on the Graphite iBook, which is working quite well. I still need to clean it up some and find a CD-ROM bezel for it, though.

Eventually, I have to overhaul the Indigo iBook, which will be a daunting process, because I don't know how to get the parts (none seem to be available on eBay right now).

But first, I am attempting to fix up the PowerBook. I have already determined that it boots and appears to work normally, aside from the broken screen, and that a top case and keyboard I have in stock will work fine in it, even though they come from an earlier model (they appear to be completely compatible, and I have confirmed that the keyboard works properly), but I am still uncertain about the LCD. The main data connector looks the same, but I have to do some more dis assembly before I can be certain that everything else will work.

And then, of course, there's the ever present need to clean up and organize my heap of stuff :-/ .
