Well, I must have done something wrong because none of it is working now. I can get a 500 keyboard for $100, a A2000 one for $120 and wire it up, or get a HP clone type for free if I can find out how to wire it up correctly. Any ideas out there?? I was also thinking of getting a HD and some RAM. 105 meg Quantums are $350 in Mac magazines, so...can the GVP Series II be gotten w/o a drive attached?? How does RAM work with it. This would all be another $700-1000 or so for this upgrade. And then I saw the upgrade offer, $2300 for a 3000/25. How long will this go on and how much RAM is it? Sorry about all these questions at once but since my 500 doesnt have a keyboard and all of my passwords and numbers are on NComm, its been fun getting on any boards. Thanks Sean Who is evil?
