Once, I was looking for brand new Wallstreet batteries. The Apple Store had none, and the local Apple dealer had none, either. The local Fry's Electronics had BTS batteries for the Wallstreet, but for a horrendous price. Visiting the DMS site, they had batteries described as being for the Wallstreet, for $198 and change. They also had batteries described only as "BATG3 for 98 Powerbook" for only $110 and change. This specific listing was buried VERY deeply in their list of batteries. I bought two of the $110 ones, and to my shock ... to my SHOCK ... the contents of the box was a gen-u-wine Apple M4685 battery, to which had been affixed a decal "Distributed by VST Technologies, Inc". Naturally, I immediately bought two more at the $110 price. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
