In article <1aif4dINNm0d@ustores.ustores.missouri.edu> I write:

Thanks to all those who responded.  The easiest way to get rid of the hard-
ware password is to do the following:

	Remove the lithium battery.

	Put the battery in the opposite way for 2 or 3 seconds. (Or simply
	leave it out for a while.)

	Return the battery to its original orientation.

Unfortunately, this DOES erase the ROM monitor's parameters.

There is also a program that will find out the password.
