- Just bought subject machine from Price Club @ $899, including
- 1.4M floppy drive. I already have a Plus (vanilla 1Meg version,
- except it has 4meg RAM, 1 external floppy, 1 external 40Meg HD)
- running 6.0.7, and I bought my college student daughter a IIcx 5/80
- running sys 7.
-
- I bought the PB to protect against exhaustion of the supply, but may
- end up returning it - haven't even opened the box yet.
-
- Can I connect the PB100 to a modem?
-
- Can it run plugged into a wall socket, thereby not depleting the
- batteries?
-
- Can the floppy drive provided therewith be used with my Plus
- (sys 6... or 7?) or my daughter's IIcx?
-
- How many lines and columns can the screen display, say, in the default
- teachtext font? In the default 9 point font?
-
- General comments about PB100 utility?
-
- Thanks.
