The RAM in a Model 100 is in this weird bastard plug-in thingie with
its own little battery on board...it uses 8Kx8 pseudo-static RAM
(can you say "about as standard as a circular doorframe"?). You're
pretty much stuck with going through the Rat Shack for more RAM. 
The Model 100 is a toy if you're using it as your only computer, but
it's the dandiest thing since sliced bread if you got one at home...you
can take the 100 around with you, use it to write letters or whatever,
then u/l it to the big 'un. The most impressive review I've ever seen
of the 100 was in a Mac User magazine; they said "Forget about trading
your Macintosh in for a Protable Mac, just get a Model 100 and it's the
same thing, basically."
