Forgive my brusqueness, but what the hell is wrong with you?
Why are you risking your data for something that will cost you
about $11 and a few minutes of your time to fix?
You say this battery's been dead for years, that your system takes
a long time to boot up and all your emails have the wrong date ...
do you have ANY idea how much trouble you're causing the recipients
of your email (and all the machines that handle it as well) by
being too lazy to fix this problem?
The "old" G3 I was talking about is not the computer I use now. It is
kept in a cupboard & will only be brought out if this imacG5 conks
out (as
appears increasingly likely, judging by some of the postings I've
read on other mac forums).
However, if flying off the handle like that makes you happy, carry
on... ;-)
