I tried with my 2 6-V 1200mAh Ni-Cd batteries, and it gives me 30 min of usage with extensive diskaccess. When the power is low, the screen dimmed when the disk light cames up and make some strange noice. Not really a usable configuration, but was fun to have my //c operating with baterries :-) I hope to have a LCD or any flat-panel style display too. Does anybody knows anything about C-Drive? which supposed to be an internal HD for //c. That will really make //c powerful! too bad AI went under... I was just about to order it. cyliao@wam.umd.edu o NeXT : I put main frame power on two chips. @epsl.umd.edu o people: We put main flame power on two guys. @bagend.eng.umd.edu o :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: xxxxx@xxxxx.xxx.xxx (reserved) o RC + Apple // + Classic Music + NeXT = cyliao
