- They do? Since when? The only thing that Apple has ever let the user
- install is the PDS/NuBus adaptor for the IIsi. You weren't even able to
- install the expansion card once you had installed the adaptor. Nothing
- that might be in danger from a static discharge is "officially"
- installable by a non-lisenced Apple Tech. And since you can't open the
- normal Powerbooks without voiding the warranty you can bet your life
- that Apple won't allow you to open the ultra-new ultra-small Duos.
