Boards are available from a number of sources including http://www.galaxyhp.com/replogicpc.html. However, at $200 or so, they're more expensive than many of the units popping up on eBay. The PTP often used a workgroup server 1MB cache dimm which, although it will work on any Mac with the nitro/tsunami boards (7500/7600/7300/8500/8600/9500/9600 (except for the Kansas board 8600/9600s) will be too tall . Some versions of the PTP had a shorter cache dimm that will fit. Generally, if the cache dimm is the same height as a standard dimm, it will be low enough to allow standard Mac cases case to close up. The twin trubo card ($995 new in 1997) will work in all PCI macs and clones. The front plastic portion of the case should be sent to me to replace the one that came crunched during delivery of an eBay bought unit not more than two weeks after I sent my spare case to RHB...=) Cheers...Michael -- Power Computing is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Power Computing list info: <http://lowendmac.com/power/list.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/powercomputing%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Macintosh?
