Making use of my PowerBook 1400
I recently made an investment in the PowerBook 1400 I inherited several months ago. After running across this page describing using a Lucent WaveLan 802.11b PCMCIA card with the 1400, I ordered a used one on eBay. I also ordered a video expansion card that allows me to use an external display. When I inherited the PowerBook, it had a cracked LCD. I cheaply replaced the original passive-matrix display with an active-matrix display from one of the 1400c models. This is a great upgrade for my 1400cs/117. Maybe I’ll get a G3 upgrade for it someday. ;) But for now, I now have a great little older PowerBook with the ability to connect to my home wireless network and do monitor spanning onto my external monitor. I know, why do I bother? It’s the collector in me.

I also have a cs1400/117 but can’t get the card to work with OS 8.5 what operating system did you end up using?
Thanks.

I’m using OS 8.6 on my 1400. It’s working just fine for me. In fact, I recently got a nice stand for my 1400 that swivels out off of my desk. With the ADB KVM I just built recently, I’m making good use of all my Macs. :)
