--Duo 280 and 2400c"
Yes it does have life. I was looking at the archives and was
very happy to find that there was life here. If nothing else the
archives were and are an interesting read.
So I have a 280c with a good working battery and in good
condition. I picked it up from the First Saturday Sidewalk Sale, fixed
it up, was playing with it, and just when I was getting into it, a
fellow worker saw it, fell in love with it, and asked if I had more
since she needed something like that for college. I said no, but I
would sell her my Duo. And I did. Missed the 280c, but knew it was
going to a good place.
A year later, she got a newer laptop, thanked me again, and I
bought the Duo back from her.
So I get to play with this Duo some more.
It is really small. I like the size. I like how it can be
docked, and I like how the dock has appletalk for networking. I can
take it home, throw it in a dock, load it with apps, and then eject it.
I think at this point I am wondering where I can find good 68K
programs for this 280c. Got a few ideas for this 280, but the ideas
are...
-A Spreadsheet
-More memory (20 mb to 40 mb or whatever the max is)
-Bigger hard drive.. where can I find one?
-Might actually lower the operating system for more compatibility. Not
sure.
I also have a non-functional 2300. It has the situation where
if you plug it into the dock the dock just chimes and chimes away.
Blown bios?
I know the 280 is not talked about much here, but hey it is the
Duo I have so what suggestions for upgrades and good programs (and
suggestable programs) would everyone here have for it?
Oh yeh... where can I get a Macintosh version of a monitor and
keyboard switchbox? (So I can switch between my bigger mac and the Duo)
Just curious on this one.
Thanks!
