Dissuaded by Scott Holder (thanks!) from upgrading to a 2300c, I now have
just a few issues on my current 280c to resolve.

1. Battery. Mine don't work. Finding working ones seems tricky. Long ago on
this list there was talk about MAKING batteries for the Duos. That is, I
remember talk of taking the battery containers apart and placing new
interior batteries. What was the upshot of this discussion? Is there anyone
here with these new (or, for that matter, working old) batteries for sale? A
good website with trustworthy information or instruction?

2. Did anyone make a good keyboard and mouse for the Duos, ones in the same
color? (I have a nice Qtronix keypad in a Duo color; I'd like a matching
keyboard. A search of the qtronix.com website reveals nothing now available,
though they do continue to offer at least one ADB input device.) Any
resources for these?

3. I've seen SCSI external CD drives for early PowerBooks, of the same
color... what were the manufacturers, and what would be the easiest way to
search for them on eBay, for instance. (Looking for model names, makers,
etc, anything for good keywords.)
