Hello u all, i´ve got an Powerbook 150 and it works quite allright an it is still good enough for me. But a little problem is: where ist the delete key? I can use the backspace-key to erase a letter behind the cursor, but how can i delete a letter ahead of the cursor? I didn´t find a key so far!

I've never seen a 150's keyboard, but if it's anything like the 520c and Duo keyboards I am familiar with, the answer is you don't. Most laptop keyboards drop a few keys deemed unnecessary, and the delete key is often one. ICBWT, especially as I've never seen a 150's. Scott Holder

can i delete a letter ahead of the cursor? I think he's looking for a forward-delete key. Ain't one. There are a couple of programs that set up special key combinations. Hidden Finder Features was one of them, IIRC. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and... Small Dog

April 1st is known as April Fools Day. It's the day to play practical jokes on people. Not sure of the history of it. The RFC people are known for their humo(u)rous RFCs for the day though. CPIP, RFCs 1925, 2550, 2551, 2795 (The Infinite Monkey Protocol Suite), and various others. Scott Holder

it support SCSI disk mode, or localtalk, or both. I'd like one that has the same screen resolution as a compact (512x384 ?) if possible, so spreadsheets, etc., come up as smoothly as possible. A 1.4 floppy would be nice as well. Another thing I need to know is how accessible and the going cost of

You can compare specs at www.everymac.com, they've got all the specs listed there. From memory, a 170 or 180 will probably fit the bill. Most of the later series 'Books have a 68030, AFAIK only the 100 came with a 68000. Any 1xx series PowerBook is readily available for less than $50.
