Howdy, I finally did it, got me a Crescendo G3/400 for $75, and now my machine feels like greased lighning! You recommended (see below) that I get a copy of OS 9.1, which I have yet to do. I could have gotten this from a friend, but only via Carracho, which I now need OS9 in order to run !!!
Do you have any suggestions and/or a copy I can borrow?
