Rex, all white iBooks use the same power supply. I bought a new one for my daughters iBook 500 a couple of months ago from MacTown. When that version came out they got the nick name of ice book due to the clear with white undercoat. Perhaps the sale person mistook which model you had.

I went to MacTown last night and told them I had an "ice-colored iBook" and needed a replacement power supply. The guy at the counter said that Apple had discontinued that model of laptop so there were not Apple-branded power supplies available. And that MacTown was out of stock on the third-party power supplies (from BTI). They suggested I go to CompUSA and try, which I did and found the power supply I needed and bought it. But thinking back on it I'm wondering now if perhaps I made a mistake that ended up sending my business to CompUSA instead of to MacTown. When I said "ice-colored iBook" in my head I was talking about the G3 version of this notebook: http://www.apple.com/ibook/ That's the one I have--a G3 600MHz model of the iBook. Am I using the wrong name for this color? I'm wondering now if the guy at MacTown thought I meant one of the old clam-shell type iBooks. --- Rex. | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be January 27.
