My 333 G3 powerbook died a little while ago. Here is the scenario: it was asleep and the light on the side (or back I guess) was blinking and everything, but when I opened it nothing came up. Now it won't start or anything. I have two fully charged batteries in it and at an outlet...

Thanks for any help.

Did you try the reset button in the back?

You mean you've never in all this time had to use the reset button?

Now that's a laptop folks.
