Also, monochrome machines manufactured after approximately when NeXTStation Color machines started to ship have this clock chip. As far as I have seen, 040 upgrades to Cubes do NOT have this, but cubes purchased with 040 boards in them originally might have them. In any event, the way to get at the menu is to login as root on the Console, then in Preferences choose the StartupDevice icon. There will be a little pop-up menu in the upper right side of the box if this option is available on your machine. -- David Lemson (217) 244-1205 University of Illinois NeXT Campus Consultant / CCSO NeXT Lab System Admin Internet : lemson@uiuc.edu UUCP :...!uiucuxc!uiucux1!lemson NeXTMail accepted BITNET : LEMSON@UIUCVMD
