Actually, one prototype and one engineering sample.

I picked up a Duo 250 and a Duo 230 and a DuoDock 1.

What piqued my interest is the 250 has a lable on
the bottom with Yeager Prototype Unit - Not For
Resale and a warning that it is NOT FCC approved.

Turns out that the "250" is actually a 280 in a 250
case. ;)

The 230 was also interesting because it has no lables
on the bottom and the printing of Macintosh and
PowerBook Duo 230 looks a bit crooked on the lid.
It had a rattle so I opened it up and found a pink
Engineering Sample lable on the frame along with some
writing I can't make out and the date 3.20.93

The 280 prototype works great, 12megs RAM and a 320meg
hard drive. The 230 has no RAM expansion and only
an 80meg drive. The rattle was a loose hard drive
screw. Unfortunately, even after resetting the power
manager, it won't boot past showing the mouse
pointer. :P

The DuoDock appears to be a normal production unit
with a Farallon RJ-45/AUI network card in one NuBus
slot.

How busy is the Duo mailing list? :)
