Also you can use external Profiles (5 or 10 Meg). I use 'em, they work fine. AND.. there's a rumor that Apple is working on MacWorks XL 4.0 which will emulate the 128K ROMS rather than just the old 64K ROMS emulated with MacWorks XL 3.0. All of the above, except the vaporware MacWorks XL 4.0 are available from NetWorkers International Inc, 8 Mariposa Ave, San Anselmo, CA (415)454-7607. Hmm.. well, I got my 2Meg RAM card (RAMSTAK) from AST... not sure NII got's 2Meg cards yet. RAMSTAKs are available from DAFAX in New (York?Jersey?). -- David Kirsten Astral Consultants (415)457-7555 POB 459 Forest Knolls, CA 94933 USENET: {sun,ptsfa,well,lll-crg,ihnp4,ucsfcgl,nsc,frog}!hoptoad!sunny
