I have grown weary of the problems I am having with PCPC software required
to run my MacBottom serial HD on my 512KE w/2MB RAM.  I want to convert
my MacMemory equipped box to SCSI, and convert my MacBottom to SCSI.  Only
two problems:
	1. I hear that the MacMemory SCSI conversions are a problem, and
	   that I have to send my board to Santa Clara for two weeks to
	   get it done. ($200)
	2. PCPC isn't sure they will continue SCSI conversions on serial
	   drives. ($250 if they will)

If I don't make the changes, I can't run 4.2/6.0 on the HD (in the design
says PCPC tech support).  Can anyone comment on the MacMemory upgrade? Can
anyone say 'bummer'?  Sure wish I had an extra $5-10K lying around.

Thanks...Gary
