Go to the apple menu and select about this mac. Click more info and get the model number for your Powerbook Then go to the following page and select the battery for your model number yours should be a M9677LL/A or M9969LL/A Apple PowerBook G4 15 Series Laptop Batteries If you cannot locate the model number, use the macs info pane to get its serial number and paste it in to this site Klantenservice: Serienummers Last edited by louishen; 09-12-2009 at 01:22 PM. |
