But I havent quite managed it yet and I have instead come by a bunch of liberated Macs (all free!). I'm already the owner of an SE (upgraded to SE/30/HDFD and 32mb/1gb HD) and a MacPlus (was holding a door open at my old work place) and other various peripherals, but I now am in the possession of these: Macintosh SE (another, appears to have 4mb and System 7.01 Dutch) IIci (wont boot as yet - please help me in Balloon Help forum) LC (10mb i think, System 7.1 Dutch) PowerMac 6320 (not 68k I know, but its running! 32mb/OS8) Between them I have 2 ADB keyboards and a 12" Apple monochrome monitor and one ADB mouse. The IIci has a 16k cache card and a 3com ethernet card (but as I said, it wont boot). Not a bad haul! From my Plus I have an external HDSC20 and an external CD-rom so that should help in my mission to resurrect them. I also have an appletalk cable. My mission is to install 8.1 on the IIci (yes i know its 030 but it can be done) and to get it on the house network vis the ethernet card. The 6320 appears to have the add-on ethernet card too :) Now I have to work to do... I dont think this is gonna be easy.... :)

Every since I got the G3 I hardly ever turn on my P4. --Eric ___________________________ I'm like the Pepsi employee that drinks Coke. I work on PCs at work but use a Mac at home
