I got this PB 540c off ebay for $41, and was immediately mad with the sender - it had chips & scratches not specified in the description. But then I noticed it had 40 megs of RAM -- 4 more than it should...which only a PPC upgrade, to my knowledge, would offer. Sure enough a diagnostic utility showed a 133mhz upgrade card. I'll pop it into a nicer unit, assuming I can figure out how. The screen is nice too. A lot of these seem to have weird red pixels. --Jon

Cool! Just goes to show that you should never judge a 'Book by its cover.
