Hello, I'm using a Wallstreet Series II PDQ, and yes, the security update was a disaster. I booted into OS9 and used an HFS+ friendly version of Norton (about three swipes) to repair the drive and all is well. Question: pram battery for the Wallstreet - can I make one from cells or is it a purchase-only item? A local battery supplier built me a pram battery for a Pb 3400.
