Comments
The PowerBook Duo 210, introduced on October 19, 1992 along with the
PowerBook 230, features a 25 MHz 68030 processor, 4 MB of RAM (expandable
to 24 MB), and an 80 MB hard disk drive. The Duo 210 is housed in a
lightweight portable case with a 9-inch grayscale passive-matrix
display. The Duo 210 can be used as a laptop computer or inserted
into a full-powered desktop system called a Duo Dock. The Duo 210
has few ports and no internal floppy or CD drive, but this can be
expanded by using it with a Duo Dock or with a compatible docking
device like a MiniDock or Duo Floppy Adapter.
