If you're going to be upgrading a Macintosh Centris 650 or a Quadra 650 to a Power Macintosh 7100, then please let me know! I'll give you $150 if you'll swap your motherboard and faceplate (and any other relevant materials) with me before you upgrade, since I have a slow IIvx. I will then basically have your 650, and you will have my IIvx, which you can then upgrade to a Power Macintosh 7100. What's in it for me: I get an upgrade to a faster machine for a low price. What's in it for you: You get $150 towards your upgrade, since it costs the same to upgrade a IIvx as it does to upgrade a 650. In the end you'll be just the same off (except a little richer) than if you had directly upgraded to a 7100. There's no need for us to swap the case, power supply, or any other components, so you needn't worry about getting anything worse than you had before. In fact, you can probably take my parts and send them directly on to Apple, and they'll send you the new 7100 parts. I'd prefer to make the trade in person with someone in the Bay Area for simplicity's sake, but long-distance swaps may also be possible. Let me know if you might be interested! -- _/_/_/ Brian Kendig Je ne suis fait comme aucun /_/_/ bskendig@netcom.com de ceux que j'ai vus; j'ose croire _/_/ n'etre fait comme aucun de ceux qui existent. / Be insatiably curious.
