>I own one. With all the fixins. I guess I do have a couple of questions, though I didn't think I did. :-) Have you experimented with using larger hard drives? Back when Perfit was in business, they said that 40, 60, and 80 MB drives (or was that 20, 40 and 60?) were the only ones that would work. I have workign drives for my units, but they're starting to get a bit of stiction, and I've found it nearly impossible to find drives that small anymore. I was in contact with a fellow who was thinking about hacking the firmware to enable larger drives, but I think he never got to the project. I have the SCSI adapter and external floppy drive but I've never found a docking adapter. Do you have a docking adapter? If so, do you know how it installs? Does it simply plug into the ROM sockets in the Plus or SE? If you know anyone who's 125 has corrupted EEPROMs (typical symptom is to buzz at startup and then put trash on screen) I can fix that. I pulled the EPROMs from a good set and had several copies run off. And finally, have you found any "community" of 125 owners? I've run across a few over the years here and there, but there doesn't seem to be any particular forum or news group or list where they gather. I check Cory Burton's page about once a year, but I think the for-pay nature turned folks off. I know, I wasn't interested in paying a membership fee for vaguely defined services.
