Jens responded earlier saying that this is a "Wallstreet" (OldWorld)
machine.

A quick google search on: apple power book M4753   confirms this.

One of the google results points to:
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://www.linux-france.org/macintosh/text000007.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dapple%2Bpower%2Bbook%2BM4753%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8

...a french page about installing Linux on this particular machine.
