Powerbook 100 and 170 + Floppy

So, got a few more laptops to play with.

The Powerbook 170 boots fine (has french keyboard).

250MB HD

8MB RAM

7.6.1

The Powerbook 100 has a blank screen when it is turned on. The PRAM battery slot in the back is missing the batteries. Would getting replacement batteries solve this issue? Though this unit is a bit rough.

As expected, the battery in the 170 is dead even after a night of charging.

Going to try and see if I can get the 100 to boot. I'm curious to find out the HD size and the amount of RAM. Its too bad its missing a shoe on the back and one of the buttons for the mouse is broken.
