Hello everyone... I have a sweet little Powerbook 2400c that I got off of eBay earlier this year. One of the PCMCIA "eject" buttons didn't work...and now the other has stopped working. Its not a big deal for the bigger cards, because I can just pull them out. But for flash memory and such its a pain to get them out without the eject button. Any ideas...is there a quick fix? Thanks Eric ps: I have tried dragging them to trash & control clicking to eject them as well. The 2400 does not have eject buttons. It does have the dreaded holes and every 2400 owner should have the essential tool for the purpose. Take a standard paper clip and 'unfold' a long end. Now poke the straight portion of the paper clip into the hole. You have to make sure that you hit the 'striker' at the right angle and then it is a matter of brute force. However, it is not a long term solution and it looks as though you will have to replace the PCMCA cage.
