Because as much as we'd like to believe different, there was a difference between the //e and //c that was beyond the phyisical. There were different ROMs for those machines. Not owning one, I cannot quite naild down exactly what the differences were but they were there. Someone once told me that you could format a disk using just a ROM routine or command. If this is true, this would illustrate the differences. Yes, the //e had slots but it was the most vanilla of the machines. I should change vanilla to 'straight forward' to make that point. Other than that, I agree with your principle here. << MCT >> GEnie : M.Tiernan AppleLinkPE : M Tiernan or BCS Mike Internet : pro-angmar!m.tiernan@alphalpha.com UUCP : ...!uunet!alphalpha!pro-angmar!m.tiernan "God isn't dead, he's only missing in action." - Phil Ochs
