    Problems reviving a 9600.

    I did the Cmd-Opt-P-R reset. I kept hold holding down the 4 keys until it cycled through 3 times. I wonder if you should pull the battery off the logic board overnight and then put it back in. Pull the power as well.

    Just bought MP2100

    Also, if you are using AAs in the battery tray, make sure to give it some time. You may need to slide the on/off switch a few times before it kicks in. Use new batteries, too.

    What The Hell Is A 512K/800?

    You asked what a 512k/800 was... its really a 512ke. I gave the background on the computer specifically the 800K drive (hence the /800 in the title). Since the ke came out after the Plus, it must have also come with the Plus style keyboard

    Which Trackball Powerbook?

    Skip the Duos. The keyboards are horrible and you will go insane tracking down all of the different docks that you will want to use:) Trust me on this. The Duos do have a bit of an advantage when you want to add ethernet as there are micro-docks that will let you do this My vote is for the 170...
