Hey, i don't really have answers to your questions personally but I thought I'd post a reply 'cause you posted ages ago and never got one, which I know is pretty frustrating :)

Anyway, like I said I don't know the answers, but I would suggest posting in the Apple Collectors section of the forums (under 'special interests'). Since the clamshell iBook is so much older. I think it definitely goes in the Collectors category, and so far as I can tell lots of the people who regularly hang out there know a lot about what various past machines are capable of. Plus the forums there are rather smaller, so you might get your thread seen more quickly, here threads tend to slip down the list pretty fast!

So do you have an iBook clamshell yourself then? I love the look of these, they're charming! They're one of the first computers that I noticed, and actually they're part of the reason why I switched. I think someday I might get one, to use as an emailing and Internet machine
