I'm quite sure my 280c does support processor cycling as everything slows to a crawl if I left my 280c unattended for a few seconds. I do very much doubt the 250 can use a color screen. I do know the active matrix display can be used 250 to 270 and 280 with a little cable swap but I think the 250 can only drive greyscale monitor (meaning 210 and 230 display can work on 250 Anyone remembers that link that was posted here a few months ago with detailed display compatibility info???). And 270c does have the FPU which would be unneeded for picture frame. So it all comes down to whichever color Duo you get the cheapest. ;) I'd try for the 2300 with the stock color display as it's slightly bigger than the 270c/280c display. ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
