How difficult is it to replace the power jack on the G3's case? Someone tried to use another power adapter and broke the jack. I cannot charge the battery nor run the computer from the power adapter. Is there a replacement jack or is the jack part of an internal board?
Is this a good question?

Hi, Strangely that connection is on the sound card. That means a lot of parts removal but none of it is difficult, and the part is fairly inexpensive. The Lombards and Pismos are the easiest Mac laptops to work on and a good place to gain experience. Good luck. Ralph
