With the help of Jim S and Dave McGuire, I got my
Spacrbook working.
It does have an issue. It says the clock it not working and needs to be
set. I opened is up to clean any remaining KOH from leaky NiCads
and saw it had one of those MK48T02B chips in it.
I tried doing a search on google for anyone hacking these chips
to replace the battery but all I got were chip sales.
ST absorbed Mostek some years back, so the prefix changed from MK to M,
but they're still made. You can get a brand new M48T02 from Digikey for
$20.10:
