Oh, my. Does this mean that if a Mac's problem can indeed be traced
to a malfunctioning (for whatever reason) PRAM battery and you buy a
new one that tests good (with a voltmeter) and THAT doesn't fix it
-- unless you have money to throw away buying PRAM batteries until
you get one that DOES work -- you might as well give up on that Mac
and use or sell it for parts?
"PowerBooks and TiBooks" ... are you talking about some other battery
here? a rechargeable meant for power?
Also test the SDRAM before you ditch any of your machines between PRAM
battery changes ...
