I have been given the challenge of choosing the upgrade choice
for my University.  Can any of you tell me where to get
new mother boards or turbo expantion, coprocesser or processer,
for several types of compatables; Epson, Zmax, AT&T 6300, Zenith,
IBM PC's and Packard Bell computers.  Could you tell me the
problems associated, pricing, dealers, and experiences you
have had with any of these situations.  Thanks
 
Also I have a problem with an older Zenith laptop with no harddrive
the tranformer had become loose and shifted onto the plastic casing
and melted the plastic.  Can you tell me if the plastic has caused
dammage to the transformer or if the transformer may have seen it's
better days and caused the screws holding it down to come loose
because of the extra heat.  I have rescrewed it in and it has
started to have the same reaction.  Any suggestions would be
appreciated.  Thanks in advance again.
