Thank you for the suggestion. The GLOD is a great acronim! Never herd about it! Not too bad indeed! I could easily locate the backup PRAM battery, just three screws away... I am going to crack its plastic case to see whether I can find a similar stuff here. Will keep you posted! Ben -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
