The Dell Latitude CPi D300XT is quite similar to the earlier Dell Latitude CP and shares much of the same hardware.
Specs
- CPU
- 300 MHz Intel Pentium II
- RAM
- 128 MiB
- Display
- 1024x768
- PCMCIA
- Two slots
- Expansion Bay
- Supports a 3.5" floppy disk drive and a CD-ROM drive
- Battery
- It not only works -- it lasts for hours
Quirks
- I believe a stock installation of Windows 95 on floppies doesn't detect the PCMCIA controller, but I could be misremembering.
- The modules and adapters from the Dell Latitude CP are compatible.
