Mike,

I have a slab that I got for free a couple of years ago - mono monitor,
mouse and keyboard included, 0K RAM, 0Mb disk (pre-scavenged). I've been
wanting to get something running on this ever since I got it.
Alternately, hit
http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n70038 and
surf from there; Apple was upgrading for free to NS 3.3 for any existing
machine. You'll get a CD.
I went there and it all seems simple...
It is possible to load from CD, but I think you need
either a floppy or
an optical to start the boot process (but I'm not clear on that).
Is the boot floppy image available anywhere? I can migrate the 2.88Mb drive
to my desktop, fire up Linux and just dd the info right to it (presuming I
track down a source of 4Mb media).
I've got lots of other toys to play with, but since this came up, I'd like
to see what I can get running here.
Thanks,
-ethan
