hi all..

Most owners of these systems will probably have crapped out time/date and
settings that wont save because of the timekeeper ram that is past its
use-by date. (they're good for 10 years).

The original is an ST M48T02-120PC1 .. i've found this to be quite pricey
when looking, so i looked at the spec and wondered if i could get a cheaper
type replacement to work.. and i found that the M48T12-150PC1 works in place
of it just fine in the ABI... the T12's appear to be easier to source, and
half the price :)

Just thought i'd post my findings...
