>What CPU does the 5300
PowerPC of some sort. Old slow 603 maybe? I don't think they used
601's in PowerBooks.

>190 have in it?
I think this was the last 680x0 machine. LC040 probably.

> What were the issues?
Wasn't there something about exploding batteries with the 5300?
Apple has always been a bit piggish about their stuff.
They'd better put a microphone in the next iBook! _at_#%!#$^!#$%^!!! But
the new G4 cube is nice. Anyone want to try to glue a nice LCD
monitor to the front and stick a G4 cube into an old 128k case? :-)
