Wow, I can't believe it but I shockingly was able to find a "still in good shape" original battery for my 17" PowerBook G4. At work there is a recycle bin where old electronics get thrown and in there I found an old 17" PowerBook G4. I already had the last 17" powerbook made, the DLSD, but I needed a battery so I grabbed the battery out of it and thought, what the hell I'll give it a try. DAMN, yesterday I had the chance and plugged the battery in and it charged up right away, only shows 33 cycles on the battery, and ran on battery power only for over an hour before I finally had to leave and turned the Powerbook off...it STILL showed over 90% when I shut the machine off and I was streaming music from the internet the whole time.
I NEVER thought I'd find another good battery for that machine again, let alone an Apple original, let alone one for free.
Nice!
Now all I need is to find a new clock battery for the Powerbook and I'm gold!
