The Powerbook was only away a fraction of the time they said it would be gone, and it looks like a brand new machine. Apple fixed the hinge, replaced the inverter board (I guess that fixed the spotty backlight) put a new upper case on it, and even replaced the rubber feet.
I hadn't realized how used I had become to my old trackpad surface, worn smooth by my own juices.
