MP2K, me baby
hell, I have tried it plugged in, unplugged, bright light shining on it, and in pitch darkness, the only thing left to do is to drag the borking thing about 2 feet away from the printer and let 'er rip. BTW, is there any other way of reloading drivers that are in ROM back into the newton short of doing a BrainwipeReboot?
thanks
