Btw, I think that the page I quoted went a little overboard. I don't think you *have* to replace the 9volt battery with an adapter, but you can. (Duh.) Still, I saw the switch that requires removing the L-A battery cover (and presumably, you would want to remove the battery as well to run off AC?) I'll report back after trying it out. (I picked up a variable power adapter from RatShack today 'cause I've got quite a few machines missing adapters.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- O- Uncle Roger "There is pleasure pure in being mad sinasohn(a)crl.com that none but madmen know."
