    Which Powerbook

    I'm leaning towards getting a duo 280c. I used to have one and liked it, it was all good, all except the keyboard, which just wasn't very responsive. The 280c dosn't have a floppy drive IIRC, but connecting a serial cable is good, and better than floppy for data transfer anyhow. I'd use it at...
