			* '''duodock''' is Apple's PowerBook Duo Dock, which you insert the entire PowerBook Duo into similar to a front-loading video cassette. The Duo Dock adds color video compatible with common Macintosh monitors, a second SCSI bus, a SuperDrive 1.44MB floppy drive, two more serial ports, an optional FPU, and 2 NuBus slots $C and $D.
			** The SCSI bus will be addressed from the command line as '''-dock:duodock:dscsi''' whereas the built-in bus on most Macs is just '''-scsi'''. So for instance, '''-dock:duodock:dscsi:1 harddisk''' will add a hard disk device to ID 1 on the external SCSI bus.
			** The NuBus slots similarly are '''-dock:duodock:nbc''' and '''-dock:duodock:nbd'''.
			* '''floppydock''' is Apple's FloppyDock, which a small pod that adds a SuperDrive floppy drive.
			* '''etherudock''' is the Newer Technology Ethernet MicroDock. This small pod adds Ethernet.
