I didn't see the MacWeek article but I believe the hardware you want is called "The Box" and it's sold by The Voyager Company, 1351 Pacific Coast Highway, Santa Monica, CA 90401 (213) 451-1383 Fax:213.394.2156. The Box links many consumer model videodisk players to a Macintosh, including Pioneer 2000, 4000, LDS-1, LDW-1, 700, 900, 1010, 1030, and 3030, and the Magnavox 8040. It comes with cables, jacks, and HyperCard software for controlling the player. The price is $199.95 and will work with a Mac Plus, SE, or II (I don't know about the 030 models). If you do get one I'd be interested in your appraisal of it. Could you post to the net your findings? Chris Stuart
