I am not sure if you can still get them these days. Peartree were selling them off at 30 pounds a year or so ago, you may like to contact them (if they still exist?). Otherwise contact Hybrid Technology. The last address I have for them is Unit 3, Robert Davies Cort, Nuffield Road, Cambridge CB4 1TP, England +44 223 316910. That was 1989 so they may have shifted since then. At that time they were selling the Music 5000 and software for 140 pounds. The price has probably gone down since then. At that time, the software upgrade from M500 to M5000 was 86 pounds. I have a music 500 with the 5000 software lying around here somewhere, certainly worth it but if you are not into writing music then it is a little expensive. -- Patrick Cain, Private Box 2060, Wellington, New Zealand.
