Hi all,
Friend's old bronze keyboard Pismo is dead in the water. Looks to me like maybe the PRAM battery is dead -- Sound about right?
Apple Store told her the power supply was dead and sold a new one...no change. No activity at all plugged in or otherwise.
I tried the mobo reset...popped out battery, unplugged and held the reset switch for 5 s. It's still a brick.
(Anyone have a good source for those batteries?)

Hi Alan. Other World Computing has PRAM batteries, as I recall. I think I bought one there several years ago. See www.macsales.com/
