        Thanks for the confidence, Mark.  I did get in over my head, and
probably haven't taken the right steps to correct it.
        I gave up on a group buy from Motorola, mostly because PMMUs
suddenly became available just as cheaply from other sources.  For those
who don't get MacLeak, here are a couple:
Third Wave Computing    1-800-284-0486
Tercom                  1-800-544-9543 or 669-7555
        If any of you who were in on the order still have problems or
questions, please don't hesitate to e-mail me.  I'm on break right now,
so I should have time to breathe.  Meanwhile, I hope we can end this
thread, so the entire Internet doesn't have to carry a discussion for
ten or fifteen people.
