Comments
The Duo MiniDock, introduced in October 1992, is a docking solution
used by the PowerBook Duo line of subnotebooks. PowerBook Duo subnotebooks
have only two built-in ports: an optional RJ-11 modem port and a serial port
for a printer or external modem. The Duo MiniDock adds a wide array of standard
Macintosh and PowerBook ports. The Duo MiniDock has 512K built-in VRAM
(video RAM) and a DB-15 monitor port. It can be used to drive an external
monitor at 8-bit color depth.
