A delicate old laptop like a Duo in the hands of any usually careful yet
energetic youngster that age almost anywhere? Eventually... Oops! Uh oh...
Duo portability will, I believe, over time, come at a high dollar cost to
you.
Portability...You might get by with PB170's and 180's. Both are way less
expensive, have active matrix screens (AFAIK), and work great with
programs compatible with 6.0.8 and 7.1. RAM capacity might be a problem.
Check LowEndMac for additional info on all of this.
