I wish you would have told me that sooner. I have a //c and since I
didn't know that I couldn't take the cover off I've added an 800K drive
a meg of memory, and a 5 mghz RocketChip. I suppose I could pitch it but
then how would I get my homework done? I'm taking Advanced Cobol and UNIX/C
this quarter, and after doing all my homework in UltraMacros enhanced
Appleworks it's going to be hard to adjust to full time XEDIT and VI.
