hmm, sounds like the exact size of an Xterminal that I have somewhere that uses an '88k CPU. Let me know if you grab it an get it working, the server off which it hangs in order to run - the ROMs only have enough info to boot the network system. If it is the same machine, it'll take standard 72 pin SIMMS and an IBM PC keyboard (with a PS/2 style connector). Memory's hazy, but I think it had a custom 15-pin connector at the back, but it threw out standard frequencies that could be used with a Sun workstation monitor... I did find some info on the web for the box, it's possible I have it at home - just give me a shout... As for things using '88k's, My old Tektronix XD88 Unix box also used one as it's main CPU. I think they're supposed to be a lot better chips than 68k's, just that they never really caught on - 68k's were too well established (and therefore a lot cheaper). cheers Jules
