Perhaps true, but such batteries consist of only a pair of VL-series 3.0 volt lithium cells and a connecting cable. While one cannot solder directly to the batteries, these batteries are available complete with solder tabs from Digi-Key. Two such solder tab VL-series batteries, and the remnants of your old PRAM battery cable, a little solder, and some insulating tape, and you have made your own replacement PRAM battery for under $10 (estimates). Every PB owner should have a small set of Torx (*), Phillips (+) and straight (-) screw drivers. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
