    PowerBook 1400 - not booting

    A few PB 1400c questions

    Last year I finally got around to rebuild my 1400/166 which has Sonnet G3 466mhz in it. Rebuilt the batteries with 17670 batteries (which is close same size as 4/3 batteries but slightly bigger but it fits)- spot weld them up - works well. Rebuilt pram batteries - its a pain, if you walk away...

    Upgrading my G4 MDD with a SONNET Encore/Crescendo MDX G4 Duet 1.8GHz Dual CPU Upgrade

    I do have G4 MDD - originally its FW400 model, with FW800 1.4ghz CPU & Copper Heatsink on it, with Sonnet SATA card with SSD attached to it - its a quite quick mac - which is why I hadn't done Sonnet upgrade. Yes it does boot into OS9 with Sonnet from what I know. Cheers AP

As my PowerBook 1400 has ethernet card in it which works really well. You still can buy ethernet card for PowerBook 1400 on ebay every now again but its...
