Re: //gs battery question...

It's not all that tough of a deal. I ran my GS for a few years on 2 AA 
batteries in a holder, with wires soldered to the clipped off battery 
pins in the GS. That was handy, as I ran the wires out of the case and 
Velcroed the holder to the back. Once a year, While the GS was running, I 
changed the batteries. (If the GS is running, the battery ram and clock 
don't crash.)

Now I have lithium battery velcroed on the motherboard, w/ jumpers to the 
pins. Not as convenient, though.

Beware of cordless phone batteries. Most of them are NiCad rechargeable 
packs, and the GS won't charge them.
