Sean,
Should be very easily done, tedious more than anything else, since
both machines will have to be almost completely dismantled. The 3400c
comes in 180, 200 or 240 MHz, called variously the 3500 or Kanga or G3
is 250 MHz. The 5300, 3400c and 3500 are all the same form factor, the
5300 is different electronically, but the 3400c and the 3500 have very
few parts that don't interchange directly, the main issue being the RAM
expansion card and in this case since I don't understand the engineering
involved, it appears that some may work. I have no actual experience
with this swap.
" The RAM expansion card for the Macintosh PowerBook G3 computer is
similar to the one for the PowerBook 3400 computer, but with a few
important differences. "
" The PSX+ used in the Macintosh PowerBook G3 computer supports most but
not all of the RAM devices supported by the PSX. "
Roger
IMPORTANT
The Macintosh PowerBook G3 computer supports only the types of DRAM
devices specified for use with the PSX+ . Other types of DRAM devices
should not be used
with this computer."

Any success stories out there of swapping mobo from a kanga to a
3400c? Any other mobos that would fit a 3400c?
Thanks!
