Mine also. 240Mhz (250Mhz?) and 512K cache.

Mine started up twice. Once at DT&T without cache and on battery. And
once at home on AC with the Newer 1.0.3 software. Cache showed up. Ran it
for 20 minutes. Sleep. It never started again. Woke up to a system error.
HDD, PCMCIA disk, and CD all tried. All sorts of freezes at various
stages, ? disks, illegal instruction, gray screens, on and on. Took it
apart (first time for me) and restarted with the 180 card. GLOD. It reset
and started up from the PC card disk. HDD was very messed up, but it did
repair. So, I am back where I was (now with tin foil dissipating heat
from my 9.5mm HDD).

I emailed him. No reponse.

Very interesting.
