My ebay-acquired PowerBook 165 came in the mail today! I am so happy! Except it only has a 12 minute battery life. Other than that, I love it! 230MB HD, 8MB RAM, RamDoubler 2...Tallgeese has gone mobile! Note: Since I have no documentation, I think the PB forum will be seeing an increase in dumb questions... Sgt.

They're not dumb questions, Tallgeese, if they help us to keep another 68k Mac running free!

IMHO, buying a 68k from eBay isn't really liberating it, unless it's painfully obvious that a (dumb) PC user is selling it
(ie: "This is an old MAC. I think the motherboard is dead because when you turn it on, all there is on the screen is a disc with a flashing question mark. I'm selling it because it's old and worthless")But whatever... FireWire is fast

I think that's exactly what the seller from whom I obtained my Duo 280c put in their auction text.  666th poster to the
