A few months ago I saw an IDE to SCSI board that converts a 2.5 inch IDE into a SCSI disk at several local shops. It appears to be meant exactly for old PowerBooks that accept only SCSI disks. In theory you can expand your HDD to the largest meg available for IDE. Price tag, 9,980 yen or about $100. Sorry I did not confirm it could fit in a Duo. I suggest you drop by at the Electric Town next time you visit Tokyo. The shops are located in B1 Floor of Tokyo Radio Department Building in Akihabara. I don't think the boards are selling like mad. They should have plenty of them in stock. As for myself, hundreds of megabytes are more than enough for my 280.
