If it's the Powebook 165 then 1993 or '94. Grayscale version of the 165c. 33 MHz 68030 w/4MB RAM expandable to 14 MB. You could of course use Virtual Memory or Crash Doubler RAM Doubler...

At least you can still get a NI-MH battery for it, the original Powerbook 100 used lead acid....

The mention of RAM doubler reminded me of this:

QuoteQuote:
In December 1995, the German computing journal c't disassembled the program and determined that it did not even attempt to do what was claimed. In fact, the data passed through the VxD completely unaltered so that no compression whatsoever could have taken place. The actual drivers were in fact slightly modified versions of code examples taken from Microsoft's "Windows Development Kit". Still, the program would try to pretend that it increased system resources, by silently increasing the size of the swap file on Windows 3.1 and by giving false information on the current state of the system.

Not sure what the Mac version did...
