        The system 5.0.4 is locate on apple.com under pub/dts/aii/sys-soft
and it also includes two text files that tell the differences between 
5.0.4, 5.0.3, and 5.0.2.  
        The only thing I don't understand is why is the sys software is packed
in hqx format?  I don't know of anything on the GS that can handle it.
So, I downloaded it on a Mac and unpacked it.  It resulted in a file packed
in sit format.  The file was a dImg.  I converted this file to the GS, and 
used Shrinkit GS to unpack the sit file.  Well, it just produced a file 
that was unusable.  
        The bottom line is, does anyone know how to get that sys disk
from apple.com to unpack to a GS usable disk ???

                        Please help!
