Pismo Revival

Well, I've been talking about this pismo for a bit now. I should probably do a thread with my progress, instead of many threads! :D

Well, I managed to get a 60GB hd for it, it's a 4200RPM drive, but it works pretty well for free. I was also able to scavange 256mb ram for it. I am also extended borrowing an airport card for it, and am recalibrating the batteries, one of which is a high capacity! All for free. All I have to find now, is my old pismo which had the good amount of memory in it, and a really good deal on a G4 upgrade for it, but even now, I remember why I loved this machine so much back in the day. It still runs well, and is great for writting, and light web surfing. And the Batteries, the last time I charged this thing was like 2 days ago, and I have been using this thing like a total of 4 hours a day.

When I find my old one, this one will still be the main one because its case is way better shape, it looks like brand new, except for the port cover which I have to put back in properly eventually.
