Hi all,
I'm new here, and here is my first question:
I have a PowerBook 170 that I cherish. The battery gave up its ghost long ago. I have a second PB 170 that I acquired along the way, only to find the battery had leaked and damaged the main board. So, I have removed the battery from my good PB 170, and I find that I can power up just fine using the AC adapter only, without the battery installed. I've used it this way several times, never for more than a half hour or an hour.
My question (finally) is, will I do any damage to the PB 170 using it with the AC adapter and no batte
