Hi Guys,
I have just had a G3 12" Apple laptop delivered that I won on eBay. The seller knew next to nothing about it except that he had put a new battery in it and that it seemed to work perfectly. Included were the original discs and it was cheap so I bought it.
The writing on the back says it is Model # M8413 and the battery is Model # 8416. When fitted and with the laptop fired up, the battery meter shows 96% and 5.5 hours.
Then we get to the tricky stuff. According to everymac.com there are only 2 iBooks with a 600MHz chip. One is the standard version with an 8 mb video chip and one with 16 mb. Mine is the basic 8 mb version. But that model shipped with either a basic CD player or a DVD player. Mine has a CD-RW.??
Does anybody know exactly what model I have here as I need to know which Airport card to buy and I also need another battery.
Cheers,
Steve. ...... Laptop noob.
