Hey folks,

So, my clamshell iBook should be arriving between Thursday and Saturday. While it will be a home unit, I know that the battery is most likely dead-and I'd still like to get a battery for it. Where is a good place to get decent after-market batteries for these clamshell iBooks? What's a good battery for these machines?

AFAIK there are not modern replacements available for purchase (someone please correct me if there's a source I'm not aware of).

You could try to rebuild it yourself with replacement cells, but that is a 'project'.

Nah. I don't do that type of tinkering. It's arrived. Works nicely. Now, I have to figure out what kind of diagnostic software to get for it.
