Starring the ComputerMar 9, 2025

Here's a collection of films that include Apple Powerbooks. The "Don's Analyst" has a 5300 and "Hitman's Run" has a 520c (and an incidental Commodore PET 2001 keyboard in a prop that has appeared in a number of places). Finally, "The Omega Code" and "Town & Country" both have Powerbook G3s.

I bought another #Apple #PowerBook520 for a small price. Firstly mainly for the display. The machine runs well - and the display hasn't the tunnel view effect. No darkening after nearly 50 mins. So the display seems to be my candidate for the 540.

Timebomb diffused ;) Not sure how prone to leaking are batteries on these PowerBooks in particular, but better safe than sorry. #vintagecomputing #powerbook520 #macintosh
