However, I hope you continue to work at it, since it is rare that someone would take an interest in hardware older than them. There is a curmudgeon-y vibe to most old computer restorers; they make things available online, but get mad when people leech the entire site. I don't understand that mentality, because doing so ensures another offline backup. Saying that people should only take one or two things as needed doesn't help when the site suddenly goes away due to illness or death, especially if it was the only repository for certain things. There will never be one giant repository for this stuff, so it is vital everyone mirror what they can. -- Jim Leonard (trixter at oldskool.org) http://www.oldskool.org/ Help our electronic games project: http://www.mobygames.com/ Or check out some trippy MindCandy at http://www.mindcandydvd.com/ A child borne of the home computer wars: http://trixter.wordpress.com/
