[Ti] Received Recall Battery - Already...

[Rod Duncan]

________________________________________________

Guess I'm answering my own question. What calibration method to use 
with my AI Powerbook? However, I've also discovered something else.

Closer reading and examination reveals the second method for 
calibration is all about the "Safe Sleep" mode introduced on the fall 
2005 AI PB and the Intel PB's.

What I did find was an unauthorized Apple hack (my favourite kind) 
that enables "Safe Sleep" mode on a number of earlier model 
Powerbooks.  http://matt.ucc.asn.au/apple/machibernate.html

Hmm...
