I haven't personally had experience with the newer TiBooks but this is what I can tell you about what does and doesn't work from the reports we've had here. > My little 'checklist' is this: > - usb & firewire ports Yes this should work. > - gigabit ethernet I'm pretty sure this works but nobody has specifically said it doesn't. > - airport card I know this will work it's the same as the older Tibooks > - soundcard Again should work > - internal modem Not a chance in hell of it working. It's a software modem no specs or drivers are available. > - cdrw/dvd Again should work. DVD move plackback under PPC doesn't work very well but that's not a hardware issue. It's just that the software for playing the back hasn't been tested on PPC very much and so most of it has architecture issues. > - the ati mobility radeon 7500 videocard (3d support?) Should work. But putting the machine to sleep and waking it up doesn't work right with this card. I'm not sure if it'll run fully accelerated, I've seen conflicting reports. Even if it doesn't run perfectly now it will get fixed as people have more experience with the Radeon's... However, it is certainly usable for now. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org We tend to see all wars through the lens of the current conflict, and we mine history for lessons convenient to the present purpose. - Brian Hayes
