Meanwhile with the Duo 250...

[Goodwin, Greg]

    Just got my battery pack rebuilt for my Duo 250, and now it stays up for a good hour or so rather than just powering on and then back off again.  :) 

    Nice little computer.  Might actually replace my Newton 2x00 eventually.  The Newton is great, but the Duo can actually emulate several other computers.

    Is there any way to fool a Duo into thinking it is displaying on 256 color BTW?  I believe even the Duo 280 can only display like 16 color right?

    But nice computer.  I have one working dock.  I want to get a dock for work and home.  Now that would be awesome!  I actually have a second dock, but the power supply on it is blown.

    Maybe I'll find another dock at the next First Saturday Sidewalk Sale in Dallas.

For the floppy, try ebay. Yeah I know, generic answer, but remember you 
need the drive and the small floppy dock.

You can just search on "Duo" and that should work.
