You might want to call Doug at the Fresh Meadows New York, Radio Shack computer Center. (the district office phone number is 718-454-2240,its in the same building) He has the same machine you have, and uses Xenix on it. He's a STRANGE person, but will probably be glad to help. Oh, ya, don't bother talking to the manager.... He's useless... (I used to work in that district.) ---------- Christopher J.
