PowerBook 160

Compared with the PowerBook 140, this model has a 25 MHz 68030 and a 9.8-inch passive-matrix screen that shows 16 shades of gray instead of black and white. It and the PowerBook 180, introduced the same day, were the first PowerBooks with a port for an external color monitor. Maximum memory rose to 14 MB. The case and the lack of an FPU did not change.
