Anyone out there had problems switching the fucker on after carrying it around? Just won't start up - battery was fully charged, hasn't been dropped...
Would appreciate any tips (like - turn it upside down and shake from side to side etch-a-sketch styley, etc).
Thank you

Sounds like it might need some tender loving and attention.
Take it out for a candle lit dinner against a back drop of Barry White songs.
It might just work.

some powerbooks have a loose video connection - the solders come a little loose.
Most likely that's the problem.
you can temporarily fix it by pressing down on one of the sides next to the keyboard to make the video connection again.

you also have to rub it's belly and then wrap it in a warm blanket.
