Hello... just signed up, thought I'd have a poke around. I'm James, I'm a Powerbook G3 lombard owner. (no one hate me..)
I'm a Technical Systems Analyst, work with cisco and open-systems at a Perth public hospital (yay). I also run my own small business "Cybix" where I provide linux and inter-networking solutions in business. I'm not OS or hardware bias in any way.. I use PC and MAC hardware, and like to mess around with Linux, etc. I havent had the powerbook for long, it was given to me by my mother who "upgraded" to a Sony Vaio, hah... Anyhow, the powerbook doesnt seem to be keeping it's system time, the battery doesnt work in either dockbay (at all, has a red X on the batt symbol) so it only works off mains power. Unfortunately the DVD-rom drive is back in the UK and will be posted to me next year, I kinda need a cd or dvd-rom drive so I can ditch MAC OS 8.6 and get YDL (yellow dog linux on it). If someone could loan me a rom that would be tops! Cheers, James
