Safety reasons that might be the case Bob, but as far as Apple are
concerned the Macintouch order is correct. Going the other way can
potentially ruin your battery or ruin the PMU in your powerbook. I
can't remember off the top of my head why, but this was a topic of
discussion when I did my Powerbook repair training with Apple a couple
of years ago.

Rod!
So , does the correct procedure require the Power Switch to be on ?
This was an American statement and some of their Power sockets do not
have a switch . ( 110 Volts )
Power pak there would be on when it was plugged in !

There is a tip on Macintouch today about the order of connecting
your PB AC adapter. Apparently you should connect the adapter to the
electric outlet before connecting it to the PB.
That would be the absolute reverse of what should happen for safety
reasons.
To keep safe you should have any loose ends plugged in before
connecting to the Power socket .
