Lines: 33 Hi, I just received my 040 upgrade and I heard that some users new how to use the old 030 for a print server, window server etc. I have an extra 80 meg quantum drive and 8 megs of ram to put in the 030. I figured I could network them togeter, but the problems is the power source. Q:Could I just put the 030 on the NeXTBus and have the 040 be the Master without conflicts in someway ( I know this is unlikely until Mach 3 comes out...) Q:Does anyone know what can be done for a power source (other than finding the right pins in the slot and jimmying it? Q:Does anyone know when the new release of System software is coming out, and if it will have version 3 of mach (which should support multi-processing) . Q:Does anyone know how to make the next sound box work on a monochrome next cube. It was accidentally ordered and I kept it rather than dealing with the hassel of sending it back... My speaker is a little shakey and I would like the mic thats built into it. Q:I have a 660 meg drive, but about 60-100 megs seems to be missing after I did the build disk System release 2.0. Where's all the missing space? Q:Has anyone ever replaced the built in speaker on the MegaPixel and if so what, was it difficult and what were the specs on the new speaker. Thanx a whole bunch...Any answers will be greatly appriciated. John
