[QUOTE="crisscross01, post: 1659362, member: 402270"] I have to use G4 PowerBook to run an essential OS9 prog. Today it suddenly went all black, though actually not quite black, it is just possible to see roughly what is on the screen and that it is running. I have also rescued critical files to my MacBook Pro using the PB in target disk mode. I have looked at iFixit article on replacing LCD, but would prefer to go for finding another PB if I can. However, is there any way I could use the screen of the MacBook Pro from the PowerBook? Both 17" models latest in their class PB OS 10.4.11 & 9.2 - MB P OS10.8.5 [/QUOTE]
