1. I have system 5.0.1. What is the benefit of system 5.0.2 compared to 5.0.1 and how can I get it? (do i have to trade in my 5.0.1 system.disk or what?) I can get to a dealer. 2. Does anyone know the format for BINSCII? I am thinking of writing a better binscii with text menus and operation similar to Apple File Exchange. Is the binscii format documented by the author anywhere? 3. How much for a ROM 03 motherboard only? I have everything else already for a ROM 01 machine. 4. When will we get an HFS FST? (join the screaming masses here) 5. Has anyone heard about the 32 bit successor to the 65816, i.e. what will it like? any and all answers would be appreciated.

Apparently it has accidentally been distributed through at least one channel, but if you run across it, stay away from it. It should not be used. Use 5.0.2 instead. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Matt Deatherage, Apple Computer, Inc. | "The opinions expressed in this tome Send PERSONAL mail ONLY (please) to: | should not be construed to imply that Amer.

Comment to message from: toddpw@tybalt.caltech.edu (Todd P. Whitesel) You say that you have system 5.0.1.. Hmmmmmmm, since that was an INTERNAL only version that was never released from the Apple confines, I wonder what you are trying to say.. I also wonder how you would upgrade something that really never existed.. By the way, Apple does suggest that their INTERNAL only version 5.0.1 NOT be used..
