I have two Pismo 500s that have been sitting around in my basement for about a year. They both worked like champs when they were decommissioned, but now, as I'm getting ready to sell them, neither will book- completely dead.
Any thoughts on what I might try?

Any other thoughts?
If someone gives me a tip that works- I'll send them a $10 iTunes Gift certificate!
Thanks,

Have you let them charge for 24 hours? If the backup battery is dead, then it needs to charge before the machine can boot.
