PB 150s screen probably earned "worst viewing experience ever created by man", with its 16 greys passive FSTN. Horrible. Youse kids is spoiled! :lol:
My first PB love and first laptop ever had a Passive Matrix of only 640x400 BLACK & WHITE pixels! I guess it's easy enough to forgive the foibles of your first PB when it's by far the sexiest of the 100 series, but I can also forgive the tail end Charlie of the series its shortcomings. It's by far the most expandable with its 40MB of RAM & BIG IDE HDD/Silent boot capability . . .
. . . and the ADB remediation is eminently hackable. }🙂
PCMCIA in a 150 would be da bombe! :approve: I wonder if it'll drive any of Duo displays?

Running 7.5.2 with Open Transport 1.1.2 and the OriNOCO 6.0 drivers. 128-bit wep encryption on the router.
I hear a faint "plug-and-play", echoing back from 1995.. :approve:
