I just became the (proud?) new owner of an Iris 2400 Turbo and have the 
following questions about it:

* What processor does it use, 68020?
* What are the specs for the 3D graphics performance?
* What type of hard disk does it use?  It doesn't seem to be SCSI; it has
  two edge connectors (one of about 36 contacts and one of about 16) as
  well as a power connector.  I'd like to get a 100M drive for it since
  the current drive is only 40M.  (If you have one to sell, I'm interested.)
* If the machine is configured for the 60Hz and 30Hz hi-res modes how do I
  change it to 60Hz and NTSC?  Does this entail flipping DIP switches or
  do I have to swap a card?
* The disk has been wiped of all the SGI provided graphics tools and
  example programs.  Can anyone supply me with a copy of them?
* Anyone have any memory, bitplanes, accessories (dial/button box), hard
  drive that they want to sell real cheap?
