Hello good forum here, very resourceful and helpful. Here is my latest conquest, a Duo 230 with 12MB of Memory and a floppy drive for $16! It had a dead internal HD so I swapped it with a working 80MB for my dead Powerbook 140 (lowwww I know 
) but it seems just fine suited to my needs. Also the floppy drive was dead so I swapped one from the same 140 (they are the same inside the enclosure ) Overall it is a joy to have now, since I grew up using a Duo 280c which is in Duo heaven!

Cool. Are you getting a full size dock?
This thing is super light, especially without a battery. As far as a dock goes, years ago I had my 280c in a Duo Dock II. The computer turned off while I was using it. Upon ejecting it never powered up again. I wont risk it again!
