Hello ,Michael Fahey. Newark, Delaware , here. I joined this low end Apple group some time ago in hopes of getting advice regarding two Clamshells I own. Could you please respond to my assumption that this group is the right place to ask questions in order to rescue these Clamshells from the shelf? If so, is the correct form to post to the above g-bo...@google etc address , my questions indicating in the Subject window that it is in regard to a Clamshell? I would be most appreciative if you could guide me. Thanks, Michael Fahey
