Apple III+ questions

Hi,
Got a Apple III+ yesterday, not sure if it works, haven't powered it up
yet, it was such a mess that I'm working on cleaning it up first.

I just cracked the case open and notice that it has three AA batteries in a
battery holder between the floppy drive and the power supply. They're in
front of where the cards go. Finding AA's strike me as more than a little
odd! Is this a user modification?

Also I've been lucky enough to get a Profile drive with it, and the
controller card is in the computer. As I've said, I've not powered the
system up yet, is there anything here I should be aware of. Does it boot
off of the HD or just the floppy? I do have a boot floppy, but I've no
idea if it's any good.
