I think this was a "feature" among all pre-Jobs Powerbooks.

  Not all... I remember my 540c running without a battery.

    My 180c would run without its battery, as well as my 3400c. I believe the 190 too.

      Interesting. My 180 would not run without the battery.

  Naw, I have a PowerBook 145B and 540c, both have batteries that are long-dead and removed and they run fine.

    The PowerBook 145b was my first Mac. Wonderful little machine. 4 MB RAM, 80 MB hard disk. I ran a web browser on it, MacWeb, and could surf the web as it was back then perfectly fine. Not today, I suspect.
