Last week I randomly decided I needed a nice "new" old PowerBook to play with. I have a Duo 2300c but it does get a bit cumbersome to use without hooking up the mini-dock and various attachments. It's also in storage right now!
Thanks to a quick eBay stop and a few days worth of watching, I scored a PowerBook 520c - with maxed RAM (36MB) for only $19.99. I only put in a single bid, and was the only bidder. The seller is shipping to me today via UPS so hopefully I'll have it before end of week. I definitely consider the RAM a big plus considering how hard it would be to find an upgrade.
It also has the manuals included - but no mention of media. Oh well!
Now all I need is an HDI30 to DB25 SCSI cable or adapter so I can plug in an external CD-ROM drive. |)
