POWERBOOK 100
"The first of Apple's truly portable Mac's, 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 The PowerBook 100 was released alongside the 140 and the 170. While these two models were based on the same motherboard, the 100 had a simpler motherboard design, and was designed and manufactured by Sony for Apple."
