We have a bunch of Mac laptops in our household. My Powerbook G4 550 MHz I bought used many years ago, a Powerbook G4 1GHz that is for when I travel on business, my wife's iBook 667MHz bought used many years ago, an iBook G4 1GHz I just bought used on eBay, my wife's MacBook we bought last summer to replace the iBook, and a MacBook Pro which is my main work machine. (Plus an old Snow iMac CRT and a 2-year old iMac LCD.)

When I got the new used iBook G4 it had minimal memory and smallish hard drive. So I upgraded both. BTW, the iBook is a real project to disassemble and reassemble, but after four times I got it right. In the process of researching the memory and drive upgrades, I came across a note about the power adapter.

The office Powerbook G4 is going back to the office for recycling, the older iBook and my Powerbook G4 go to eBay soon. You know the nice little box-shaped power adapter with built in "cord management"? It turns out that there are at least four different models that all look identical. Not counting the newer mag-safe versions. I have used them all interchangeably, and dumped unused ones in a drawer. So I spent several hours last night trying to figure out which model went with which laptop so that I could provide the Original adapter with each laptop when I sell them on eBay or turn the one into the office. I am not sure it matters. but it does seem that there was probably a reason why some came with a 65W vs. a 45W version. Now that I have that more or less figured out, it is on to the question of which system discs came with which machine...

If it were warmer I would be out taking pictures instead. Or maybe I should get a life?
