I've been using my 280c in my Duo Dock II without any problems. Apple
System Profiler and Norton tell me I don't have an FPU though TechTool
does. When I opened it up before I did see some kind of card hanging off
the motherboard with the FPU on it. Not sure about the Plus but my II
does have AAUI ethernet built-in
