Eric,

   If you decide you don't want to repair it.  I'll buy it from you.

Subject: Just given a Powerbook Duo 2300c, what do I have?


> Hi everyone,
>
> I have just been given a Powerbook Duo 2300c, with a docking station. I am
Mac ignorant, I have

not engage in the

docking station it makes a

supply is bad? The PB has

are, as well as MacOS

> My questions:
> (1) where can I get a 24VDC @1.5A DC power supply that will work with this
laptop?
> (2) I want to connect this PB to my home network that consists of a RH7
Linux box, several WIN98
> boxes, a WIN2000 box and a Sparc10 Sun workstation all behind a Linksys
NAT that interfaces to the
> world through a cable modem. Can it be done? How could I do this without
using a docking station?
> Is there a smaller docking station that I can use, the inoperable one I
have is huge.
> (3) I use Samba to exchange information between UNIX and Windows (does not
work too well for
> WIN2000). What hoops will I have to jump through to get the Mac to play
with Linux or Windows?
> (4) Can I interface to my network through the Appletalk (or whatever it
is) connection?Thanks in

Microsoft Windows

> Any links to information will be greatly appreciated!
