I in turn would put it in my wife's PC (the only one with an ISA port) so she could at last work with a decent machine... In any case what she uses the machine for is to sync her Handspring Visor so Jonathan Hudson's Palm Utilities would do the trick (not to mention that they are a LOT FASTER than their PC counterparts). On the subject of QXL's now... Can someone please tell me whatever happened to that ISA to SuperGOLDCard adapter, Miracle was announcing in the IQLR? I was inactive at the time, so I am utterly clueless... (Since it's the first time I heard about that I suppose it went down the drain together with Masterpiece????) Phoebus
