Just pulled the cpu and discovered it is a 266mhz. Forgot to mention I got a Logitech Wireless mini mouse with it that now works well with my G4 tower. :)

Just discovered that both batteries that came with it hold a good charge. :)

. Too bad. It definitely is a step down in quality compared to the 760el I had.

Battery does work. 13 inch screen at 800x600. USB port too. Now I have to decide if it is better than the Thinkpad i1400 I just picked up. The Thinkpad needs a hard drive, can hold more ram, and I think it has a 300 mhz Pentium MMX. It has a dead battery though.

96 mb ram, 4gb hard drive, wireless card, decent battery, 266mhz Pentium MMX. Had Windows XP Pro on it for some reason. I'll be putting Windows 98 on it.

Just picked up a Thinkpad i 1400 and XP Home on the original disk with an unused key code. The Thinkpad has a bad hard drive. It has a 300mhz Pentium MMX and 64 mb of ram in it. Once I get it up a running I'll put Windows 98se on it.

I left the machine plugged in with the battery in for a short time and now I have all four dots on the battery lighted instead of three. The battery seemed to charge up more. It still is not recognized and will not boot from the battery even with the pram battery disconnected.

Should the machine show a menu bar symbol that it is plugged in? I seem to remember one on another machine that I ran OSX on. What are the symptoms of a bad power board?

Did that already. The machine runs briefly on battery and then shuts off.

I decided to wipe to drive and install OS9 so I could run the battery reset program. I did that and the machine still would not recognize that battery. I reinstalled OSX and that as well did not help. The machine says that there is nothing in the bays. I even have an old dead battery. It as...

A couple of other things I noticed were that when I have it unplugged and put the battery in it the computer starts and then shuts off quickly. Also if I unplug it and leave the battery in the date and time settings are kept. Any thoughts?

Never heard of that. I booted it with an OS9.2 CD to check if it was a problem with just OSX and the same thing happens. OS9 does not see the battery. I'm thinking it is the PMU board.

Just got a new battery for my Lombard. When I push the button on the battery it shows three lights so I assume it is charged. However it will not boot the Lombard. When I plug it in the machine boots but the battery icon only shows and X. The battery is not being seen by the computer. Thye...

Update. Got a DVD module on ebay for $18 shipped. Am installing Panther from a DVD right now. :)

Thanks. I just got it today and am posting using it. It boots up fine and is as advertised. I took 256mb of ram out of my Wallstreet to up the Lombards total to 320. It came with 10.2.8 on it. The pram battery is dead too. It was nice to see how easy it is to replace when I opened up the...

I think so too. The seller just told me it shipped today. :)

Working 400mhz, with 128mb ram, 6gb hard drive, ac adapter, dead battery, no DVD drive. Maybe the original boxes too. From an ebay auction that advertised it as a Powerbook GP3. I was the only bidder. I was looking for something cheap to run Jaguar better than my Wallstreet.

Good point.

A local city had it's annual spring cleanup trash pickup this week and as I was driving through I saw a IIgs on the side of the road. I already have a IIgs Woz so a spare could come in handy. I pulled over and got it. It had a monitor and a 3.5 inch as well as a 5.25 inch floppy with but all...

Nice. I really like the LCs. When I got my 475 it had the same problem. A new pram battery did the trick.
