3. the 4.5V alkaline velcroed "brick" Rayovac 640 with a cable and plug connection notorious from the 630 and the related PPCs. Extremely expensive but still obtainable today. And to make this on-topic, the 575 through 578CD (and 5200 through 5400) used it as well... Need I to say I still recommend MacTracker?
A little OT but I just made 3 "640" copies out of 3 x AAA cells soldered in series and to the snipped off connector and wires from the original. I peeled off the velcro and stuck it on the bottom, holding the whole thing together with a couple of cable ties.
I put one each in a 6360 souped-up with a 6500 mb, a stock 6360, and a 631CD. All worked great.
3 x AAA battery is MUCH cheaper than a 640 on the internet, and has a longer mAh rating :-)
