1- This system is slightly thicker than other PowerBook Duo computers and will not physically fit into the original Duo Dock. The PowerBook Duo Top Cover Upgrade (p/n M1814Z/A) is an enlarged top cover which will allow the Duo Dock to accommodate all of PowerBook Duo computers. An upgraded Duo Dock will also support a monitor of up to 85 pounds such as an Apple 21" Color Display. Without retrofitting, the Duo Dock will support a monitor of up to 35 pounds, such as an Apple 14" Color Display.


2- This system cannot utilize the 68882 math coprocessor (FPU) if installed in the Duo Dock.
