PB 150 Q's answered:

1: The screen is pretty blurry(ex: when you move the trackball, the cursor leaves a little line behind it which fades away) It's not much more worse than other passive-screen Powerbooks though. I personally would say the screen is reliable.

2:Nope. Remy Davidson of IGM has said in his Powerbook reference guide (I forgot the exact name) that the IDE controller limit is around 8.4 GB.

3: The price is alright IMO. Around $5-$10.

4:You can use a standard Asante EN/SC dongle and the special HDI cable that came with it to add Ethernet. There are slightly better ways, but they require ADB.

And I assume you're aware of the other "problems" of the PB 150? Despite these, I really enjoyed mine before the hard drive died.
