Apple PowerBook Duo 210 with Duo DockNumber 19 on former MacWorld Editor Jason Snell's “20 Macs for 2020” list of the most notable Macs.
You can own this great and unique piece of Apple history. The PowerBook Duo is of course heavy and chunky by today's standards, but in its day it was the ultra-portable option for Mac users on the go. Pop it out of the Duo Dock and easily carry it to class or a business meeting in your backpack or briefcase. Once you're back home... or in the office, insert it back into the Duo Dock to expand the laptop's capabilities with your connected peripherals and network access.

About This ItemIncluded here you get:PowerBook Duo 21032 MB RAM80 MB hard diskSystem 7.5Duo Dock (M7779)Black & white video card in one of the expansion slotsStandard Mac power cable (for the Dock)
All parts look decent considering their age. Perhaps could use a little more detailed cleaning, but no physical damage is visible, except the Duo Dock is missing one foot pad.
The computer boots up when docked and appears to function normally. The laptop does NOT boot up when out of the Dock, however. I've gotten the startup chime sometimes, but then it immediately dies. I suspect that the battery pack is not holding a charge and not providing sufficient power. The Dock's motorized system that pulls in and ejects the laptop has worked fine in my testing.
I've cleared off the personal files of the previous owner, but left most of the installed applications and utilities.
This item is sold AS IS.
