Good morning, all. What's considered normal battery drain for a 12 PB
G4 while asleep (suspended)? Between about 9pm yesterday and 5:30am
today I lost about 10% of my charge, according to X-Charge.
Thanks,

In my quest to get myself a decent PowerBook I ended up
buying two Pismos, one early 400 and one late 500.
I am now putting together the best parts to keep and then
sell the rest. However, my question pertains to the DVD
players.

Sounds strange to me that it has G3 Series as this was the
Wallstreet range, and the unit doesn't fit that PowerBook,
nor is the DVD supported in the Lombard...

To settle some misunderstandings, G3 PowerBooks came in several sets:
The PowerBook G3 [Kanga, 3500, processor speeds of 250MHz, used a 3400
case, does not support Mac OS X]
PowerBook G3 Series [Wallstreet/Mainstreet/1998, speeds of 233, 266,

Yes, as long as the SR-8174 is still inside that housing! Check it in
Apple System Profiler to be sure before choosing between the drives.

I would tend not to use a Lombard DVD-ROM in a Pismo until I had confirmed
that it worked by some other means. I have not heard any cases of drive bay
modules from a Lombard being incompatible, I believe in fact they all are
compatible with a Pismo,
I was just looking around and the same is stated in Apple's Knowledge
Base so yeah you are right that either will work.

From LowEndMac:
The Pismo PowerBook uses the same drive bay devices as the Lombard
PowerBook G3, although its DVD drive cannot be used on Lombard.
