[Ti] Ti 800 PRAM

[kalirhe at umdnj.edu]

Thanks, Kynan!

So, basically - if I can get the Ti 800 started, and install Techtool 
Pro 4, I should be able to pick up any hardware probs?

What kind of problems have people been getting with the logic board? 
The memory is the "Apple-supplied stuff"..

Not such a big deal if the drive decided to go to "HD Heaven", since 
I've been meaning to change the 60 GB one on the 1 GHz Ti G4 and it 
could go to the Ti 800.

Best,

Henry
