I just scored something that i have NEVER seen before. at least me personally.
I purchased and recieved a load of powerbook parts units off of ebay. for roughly $36 dollars including shipping. I needed them so i can scrounge enough parts to fix up my duo 2300 thats missing things. And i was praying on them having the SCSI HDDs in them. as the auction didnt specify whether they were included or not.

So, i got 3 powerbook Duos. a powerbook Duo 270C with a good screen, and one with a broken screen. both fire up. Got another powerbook duo 270C thats already upgraded 2300c.

got a literally destroyed powerbook 520c and a powerbook 1400c.

How common/Rare are these upgrades?

Lucky you. I thought about buying that but they wanting 76$ for international shipping so it was not worth it even though I badly wanted the duo's.

As for the upgrade, they are uncommon enough that they command a sum on ebay when they do up (which is not often).
