I had one of these. (and a 230, and a 100. I liked small).
The localtalk/serial port was not well attached, so if it was used much (like, pluggin in an external modem over and over) it would get loose and detach from the board.
The ethernet dock was super fast (for 10bT) in my recollection, possibly because of the PDS attachment. Never had a full sized dock, or to my recollection, ever plugged a floppy into one of my machines.
The keyboard wasn't as bad as the 230, but it's not good either. On the other hand, the 140/170 series had unbelievably good keyboards.
Compared to other machines of the time, they were a complete pain to disassemble to replace parts. I think I did memory and a modem at one point. The only worse one I can recall is replacing the keyboard on a unibody MBP.
- detourdog 3y agoI started out with a Duo 280 which had the 68LC40 no math co-processor was my memory. I also had the duo dock on my desk which had a large screen attached and 2 Nubus card slots. When I traveled it had an ethernet module that plugged into the expansion port. The duo was my favorite Apple laptop form factor.
