I book battery

[Ken Frack]

any hints on the best place to buy of an I-book battery other than
the apple stores?

I'm looking for cheap.

You don't want cheap. Batteries are like produce

Just as produce begins to decay the moment it is picked, so batteries
begin to degrade at the moment of manufacture. Cheaper ones are older
ones and will not last long. The NuPower batteries are of high quality
and absolutely worth the price new, if they make one for your model.

Your are right, I did not mean cheap. I really meant a discount source.

Best I can do for you is, try the Battery Plus on Hwy 99.  There is also one on 82 Ave Portland at 48 th St.  How about Frys in Wilsonville.

It was almost ten years ago, but a PowerBook 1400 battery I purchased
at Fry's back in 1999 only held a charge for about 30 minutes. A
standard Apple battery I bought a few months later held a charge for
90-120 minutes.

Inexpensive batteries are usually inexpensive for a reason. There are
relatively few things that can go awry with a new-in-box Mac, but I
would not consider either Fry's or the Battery Plus a reputable source
for new Mac products such as batteries.

Can incoming items be down-sized to fit regular pages for printing.
We are referring to width and/or can it be rotated.

This is probably not the best way, but I am computer tech challenged.

If I get an email that is too wide, I forward it to myself. When I
receive the message, it fits.

Ken, your idea didn't work on the item we wanted to print.
We tried FWD and the item totally changed the way it was sent, now to become undecipherable.
Then we tried copy and paste and got a virus warning, We did a virus thing and quit post haste.
It wasn't that important all of a sudden.

Sorry, I have no other ideas.

You can also try printing to a pdf file. First go to Page Setup and
set the percentage to 90 percent. Preview the pdf file before printing
and you will see if it all fit on the page, then adjust according. If
it is still too large, try 80 percent, etc.
