New battery for PB G4
=====================

As you  may know, I  have new PowerBook G4.  It came in  almost perfect
shape (for  a 13 year  old machine),  except the battery.  The previous
owner told me that the battery does not hold charge. It actually does -
but the  remaining capacity is  enough just to  hold time for  2-3 days
when PB is off.

I have  got a new  one on the  eBay. It came from  France and it  is an
original one. I didn't expected that it will work but it does, even its
capacity is OK (the system says that it has only one charging cycle and
it should be enough for 3-4 hours of use).

So it looks like I have a  fully working PowerBook G4. The only problem
is  that I  cannot use  WiFi for  some reason.  But my  WiFi router  is
somewhat special so I have to test WiFi in another places.
