Stupid TiBook Tricks


Maybe you won’t think this is cool, but I thought it was goofy enough to share: (I’m sure it’s just a simple little thing with the PowerBook’s metal case being the ground).

With a Titanium PowerBook:
Plug your TiBook into an external monitor. Leave the power adapter plugged into the wall, but not into the PowerBook. Notice that the light on the end of the power adapter is off. Now with one finger, touch the outer metal ring on the power adapter, and then touch your hand to the outside of the powerbook case. Notice the green light will light up. Yes, there is even a picture.
