Powerbook1.com I think. First you have to get a sales rep with a clue. It took
me three tries to get somebody who knew. It is not a "listed part"
according to them. Like I said was fun trying to get this one.

I am going to sell it. I was going to put it in my Powerlite 170 but I sold
that to Ken. I then thought about putting it in my Voyager. But I am seriously
considering selling that too. I am tired of all the stuff in the way here.
