I am seriously considering purchasing a PowerBook Duo 230 in fact I already have the money and had placed a order. But I canceled after finding out that the company would not preload any software what so ever. Had they only installed iCab for me I would have had the Duo by now. I asked how would I go about getting files onto the Duo, they suggested purchasing a Duo Dock for $99, and even then I don't have access to a mac that has a floppy drive, which means another $100 dollars spent, all of a sudden things got very expensive so that's why I cancelled the order. I subscribed to this list last night in hopes of finding a answer to my question, Would it be possible to use a iMac with a USB to serial converter so I would be able to take advantage of appletalk(the Duo will only come with the OS and that's all)?
