The PowerBook 100 is a neat little beast. I liked mine, before its ancient 20MB hard drive bit it
. I would've scrounged up another disk if it weren't so difficult to find batteries for the things, because they're Duo-sized with a full compliment of ports, and their keyboards are light years beyond what the Duos had (which is funny 'cause the 100 is years older).
What would really be nice for those old drives is a program that can run a full factory low-level format on the thing to reallocate bad sectors and rewrite any servo data that may have degraded after decades of use.
