[Duo2400] duo nightmare

Hello...I have been reading this list for about two weeks now and it seems that all everyone has is 2400s. I have acquired a 2300c Duo and have recently bought a DuoDock from Ebay. The Duo itself would boot up to the point where I got the unknown disk icon on the screen, but only when plug

Ok, boys & girls, I've got to clean out the office a bit.and some Duos are going to go. I've got two 2300's; one has 36M ram, 1.1 gig HD, modem, OS8.1 and the other is a Duo 280C/2300 logic with a clean/clear display (no corner darkening) with a 750 meg HD, 36 megs RAM and trackball instead

I seem to remember the line of an old song which said (something to the effect) that a thing is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. This obviously applies to 2400's on eBay ($789 - WOW!) and MacPlus's - I would be willing to sell mine for $50 - any offers? Andy -

[Duo2400] 2300c Start up Problems

I am reposting this question since I didn't get a response last time. Maybe it is a stupid question but here it is: I have a 2300c that won't start. It begins startup, makes noises like it is starting and the screen gets bright, but no apple logo comes on. I tried starting with the shift key

[Duo2400] Re: 2300c Start up Problems

Rich, your startup disk may be corrupted. Do you get the blinking question mark? As you have a mini dock you might try and start from a floppy or external HD to find out. Another possibility: Unseated RAM card. You'd have to remove the keyboard to take a look. HTH Edgar > I am reposting this ques

[Duo2400] Fwd: FS: 2400c floppy drive, no cable

I don't know about the 2300 compatibility. I do know it takes a specialized cable by IBM that only works for this floppy. (IIRC, someone here said the cable looks like one IBM has used on PC computers, but that it won't work on the 2400's drive.) Scott On Tuesday, September 23, 2003, at 08:20
