Background

The first of Apple's truly portable Macs, the PowerBook 100 had basically the same processor as the old Mac Portable. The 100 was well received despite its slow processor, passive-matrix screen, and lack of internal floppy drive. It originally sold for $2,500 U.S. The PowerBook 100 was released alongside the 140 and the 170. While these two models were based on the same logic board, the 100 had a more simple logic board design, and was designed and manufactured by Sony for Apple.
