(i can troll too you know ;). some suck yes, but not all of them do. a lot of them are quite easy to install on. i've worked on clones to the late power macintosh ones (8x00), and the 7500-7500 and the 8500-8600 are especially easy. and the 7200 is relatively simple to do, just need the right serial cable (possibly hacked) and another machine. > -- > Steve Langasek > postmodern programmer -- ##-----------------------------------------------------------------## | http://www.nuit.ca/ | http://simonraven.nuit.ca/ | | PGP key ID: 6169 BE0C 0891 A038 | | ##-----------------------------------------------------------------##
