I am carrying on a rather silly conversation with someone on the Apple discussion
postings. My 1400cs/166 started from day one by using the "c" key for the CD, although
even the original software disk (OS 8) said to use the "finger dance" (which I use to
start from a ZIP disk when I need to). This machine must have been one of the last
ones to ship to Germany, since they were discontinued the next month. The ROM is
$77D.32F3. This fellow seems to be fascinated by my 1400's ability to do this, since
1400's are not "supposed" to have this feature. So what about yours?
BTW, did my warning about the Sonnet upgrade cards make it to the list? I was having a
lot of difficulties (thanks to Sonnet and German OS 8.6, who don't like each other at
all!) and the mail may have been lost in cyberspace, though there was one digest I
don't think I ever got (thanks to the same difficulties).
For the record, 1400cs/333MHz Sonnet/20GB Travelstar/64 MB RAM. And yes, I wish I had
waited to buy a new iceBook.
