I thought I would add my comments on WB 2.04. Rang Maxwells (Melbourne) on Friday afternoon 4pm and order a copy of WB2.04. Cost was $147 plus $5 postage - not bad considering I can't get to Melbourne in a car for $5. It arrived on Tuesday via Australia Post (Certified Mail) I read the instructions twice and then set about the task of installing it. The KickStart ROM was in in 10 minutes - however take care in following the instructions depending on the revision of the motherboard (A500). The software installation took about 30 minutes - and I didn't even have to reformat my hard disk. Now the hard part - customising the new system - I think that will take me about a week. From what I have seen so far - the documentation is excellent, much better than anything I have seen from Commodore before. I haven't had the chance to test all my programs, but the few things I have run, eg. PageStream and a number of small utilities seem to be OK. One thing I must get hold of is a compatible version of NoClick - the two disk drives are driving me crazy! BTW - It seems to be a more stable system than 1.3 catch ya later Scott Macdonald
