HP OmniBook 300 find!

[Adam Vaughn]

Again, thanks for the replies. I checked the ROM card, and it's indeed version ABA. Ugh. Is there a way to tell what sort of flash card would work with this unit before I buy it? I'm guessing the sort of Sandisk card I have for the 200LX is a good bet, but I don't know about any of the others around.

Yeah, I was referring to the door near the back on the left side. Interesting that that's the spot meant for the modem; I would've guessed that it'd be PCMCIA-based, like most of the peripherals used with these machines. My other guess is that it might be an alternate mounting/storage space for the built-in "mouse"; guessing whoever designed this thing didn't have lefties in mind at all...

Again, thanks for the tips on the RAM cards and card carrier door. Was hoping there'd be some sort of source for this stuff, but given that these machines are 23 years old, it shouldn't surprise me, really. I suppose I'll have to keep an eye out for a junker on eBay or somesuch...
