| PowerBook 100 |

I just won an eBay auction for a PB100 🙂
Looks to be in good shape and running, but has a blotch on the display. Hopefully just cosmetic but if not I have a dead PB100 to be a donor machine. I know it's display works ok - it just refuses to boot properly. I think it's HD is bad.

dead hd (it had a 10mb hard drive!) , dead battery and some weird stuff in the electrics. sometimes it boots and sometimes it doesn't. probably a problem with the power connector.
ill fix it one day when i have time and money.

super little machines - hows the screen blotch? Looks as if the LCD may have been frozen; I have seen that happen to an LCD that was left in a truck one time. Image still shows in the blotch area though. I will likely do a transplant with the one that is not working.
