Thanks for all the tips regarding linking the machines,  I bought a special
SCSI cable to link the two.  

(40 UK pounds if your interested - Legal Computers London + 44 171 544 1300).


Thought!!!!!

Can I use this cable to drive the PowerBook's screen as a second monitor of
the G3?

Highly unlikely. I've only heard of one video-down-the-SCSI bus thing,
which was developed for Mac Pluses.  It was slow even by those
standards.
