Happy birthday to me!
A friend just handed me a Toshiba Portégé 3110CT subnotebook, bag, external floppy and port replicator. No power supply and no internal optical (there's no room for one).
I'm still searching the specs, but it appears to be a PII Mobile 300MHz with 64 (shipped) to 192 MB of RAM. It's tiny - about the same footprint as a Duo, a little thinner. Very sleek and shiny magnesium and light grey plastic shell. 10.4" 800x600 TFT, USB, Cardbus, modem, and a few doodads and whatsamajiggers I haven't identified yet
The power supply issue looks like a no-brainer - the port is identical to a two-pin motherboard jumper block /*/. And at 15V, I'm going to try and boot it in my car (closer to 14V in reality than the nominal 12V), stick Debian on it and run it as a nav/MP3 device.
