Hello list,
when I got my PowerBook 2400/180/112MB RAM 3 years ago, I opened it
up using Kim Brennan's upgrade guide (http://members.aol.com/kim/
computer/duo/2400cpu/2400upgrade.html) to install a 6GB hard drive.
I was a bit scared of killing the mainboard, so I did not activate
the CardBus.
While I believe that I am ready to do so now, all the formerly
available resources and instructions seem to have vanished and the
below links just produce "404's":
www.ab.aeonnet.ne.jp/~tkishino/Cardbus-e.html
www.10k.org/jake/comet/cardbus
Does anyone still have instructions photos/illustrations on how to
enable the CardBus on a 2400, either locally stored or as a link?
Another problem occured just recently: as my 2400 is approaching its
10th birthday, the rubber feet's consistency changed into a gooey
chewing-gum-like lump that got stuck on every surface I put the
laptop on.
I finally decided to scrape them out of their cavities.
Working for a computer manufacturer in Taiwan, I am planning to ask
one of our suppliers to produce 20 (minimum amount) "samples" that I
want to use to replace the feet. If anyone in the list faces the same
problem, please e-mail me off-list.
As I won't have to pay for these samples and only need four, I would
be happy to mail the remaining 16 to people in need...
Cheers,
Markus
