Good work getting this to run on your Apus 3000 (Euro C600 UMAX clone?)
I hope to try it myself on my C500 one day which I am lucky enough to
have a G3 Ziff installed in. HERE is what Ryan Rempel of XPFacto has to
say about the Apple 6400/6500.

I thought this might be of interest since you don't seem to be getting
many replies . Will S
