... and now it's pulled, after killing Ethernet on many machines and
crashing hard enough to kill my drive structure on this Lombard
PowerBook (many other Lombard users have reported the same thing - a
screen full of damaged graphics followed by a hard lockup). That even
recurred after a full 10.2 reinstall followed by a Software Update
upgrade to 10.2.8 direct, so it's endemic methinks.
Oh well,

I've had no problems either (12" G4 Powerbook) but knowing how life
works this could be my last news posting :-)

Yeah, I saw. Unfortunately after I'd installed. Ethernet seems the
only problem thusfar for my G4 400, and that isn't a big deal for
me, most of the time.
