[Ti] FireWire PCMCIA reccomendations

If the Powerbook is out of warranty, isn¹t there some way to get these ports
to work again? Isn¹t there a fuse or thermistor that you can replace? I know
in some early powerbooks some ports fried and there was some way of bridging
the burned out circuit with a fuse.

It is interesting to note that when Apple repairs blown Firewire ports they
now include an ESD protection circuit.

Anyhow, I ran across this on a Google search:
