Heh, i remember that appearance in Jurassic Park. Btw, remember what i said about the empty mounting holes in the side of my Q700? Well i figured out what they're for: Removable feets! You can remove the feets from teh bottom, and place them on the side, to place the machine horizontally, or vice versa. But i guess you already knew that. "**** em" - Jobs in regards to customers

Nice score! Wish I hadn't sold mine, I fuond it in a 7100 but never had a decent 68k Mac to put it in and I was going to spend 100USD on a new ROM to make it work properly in a PowerMac, oh well!--------

The 700 is a cute lil boxie, sandwiched between other macs or not :D. It just happened to fill the gap nicely when I was lining up the family shot!. And starring in movies too - http://www.danamania.com/temp/jp.jpg
As much as I like the Q700, what I really want is the big red box next to the bad nerd's desk. http://www.impediment.com/templates/sgi/Crimson.inter.gif ,xtG
