Comments
The Duo Dock II is used to turn a PowerBook Duo subnotebook into a
fully functioning desktop computer. 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 Dock II adds an optional internal
hard drive, 1.4 MB floppy disk drive, and a wide array of standard
Macintosh and PowerBook ports. The Duo Dock II has two NuBus slots for
internal expansion cards. The Duo Dock II adds 1 MB of built-in VRAM
(video RAM). The additional VRAM allows the Dock to display a variety
of resolutions and 16-bit color. Unlike the Duo Dock, the Duo Dock II
has a standard built-in AAUI-15 Ethernet port. The Duo Dock II's notebook
enclosure is larger than the Duo Dock, providing compatibility with newer
PowerBook Duos with thicker color displays. Unlike the Duo Dock, all Duo
Dock IIs shipped with a 68882 FPU as standard. With this docking solution,
when you want to take your work with you, you simply press the eject button
on the Duo Dock Plus and the PowerBook Duo laptop slides out, ready for
computing wherever you go.
