John, I'd just spend the money on a better machine. SCSI drives, great as they are, are expensive, and you can get a much better PB for about the same price, or a little more than what a SCSI drive would cost. I wouldn't take the time, unless you're really bored one weekend, and you already have the replacement drive sitting on a shelf... I'll be honest with you, I'd jump at the chance to repair it, if I were in that situation, but it's really not worth the trouble, unless you have a serious emotional attachment to it.
The only reason I'm going to fix my 190 is that I can't afford to replace it. If you can afford it, switch to a 1400, at the least. However, it's your choice to repair or replace... Just my two cents worth, Caleb -- I realise that my 'Book is older than Moses, has a laundry list of repairs to be done, and is about as heavy as a small cannon, but it's still better than any Windoze machine.... -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
