I have a CMS 80 and I don't really know about A/UX but you have to use a different driver with regular Mac software - the Apple one won't work and I'm waiting for a ROM upgrade ( that I guess I'll be paying for ) to take advantage of the Mac II speed. In the meantime I'm running a disk set up for a Mac Plus ( apparently slow interleave ). I don't know where to point finger(s) ( dealer? CMS ?Apple? ) but I do know that early CMS 80's like mine had a few problems working correctly in a Mac II. I would be pretty leeeeery about running a CMS 80 with A/UX untill I knew more. -- Dennis Grittner City of Saint Paul, Minnesota (612) 298-4402 Room 700, 25 W. 4th St. 55102 "Let's just put Ollie, Ronnie, and the rest in jail!"
