Thanks to everyone that replied.. Makes me feel better that I'm not the only one chugging away on a 280c for my main laptop.. I'll have to look into a later rev keyboard, being that is my only real complaint about this great lil laptop.Nathan,
I can help on a couple of these.
>1.) Is there any better keyboards I can put in this thing?
I use the Powerbook Duo Floppy adapter, which has an ADB port. I hook that up one of the fullsized ADB keyboards and my favorite ADB mouse, trackball or joystick. For travelling, I can can fit one of those really small Apple Keyboard II units in my briefcase without much trouble. I sometimes have to do lots of typing on my Duo when I travel. I hate all Powerbook keyboads, but the Keyboard II feels like a fullsized unit but it's compact (15 x 5 inches) enough to carry in a decent sized briefcase.
>3.) What os do you run? throwing around 8.1...
I like 8.1, but I think you need to be maxed out with 40 megs of ram to use
it effectively. All I use is MS Word and I have a couple of low-power games
to stall off the catatonic stages of motel room boredom (Tetris, SimFarm,
Galactic Empire).
