I really have tried to get this info from the only local "authorized Apple dealer", but to no avail. A call to Apple referred me to my local dealer. Sigh. Maybe someone out there can help me... 1. The Mac II to Mac IIx logic board upgrade costs about $2800. Is there a trade-in allowance for the old Mac II logic board? 2. Getting an internal FDHD on a Mac II involves buying the FDHD mechanism for $500 as well as a ROM/SWIM chip upgrade for $200. If the II to IIx upgrade is done first, is the ROM/SWIM chip upgrade necessary? 3. Can the new ROM/SWIM chips handle an "old" 800K drive as well? There would be one FDHD and one 800K, both internal. 4. Can the ImageWriter II Cut Sheet Feeder handle envelopes using the single-sheet feed slot? I've managed to get ahold of a manual, but it never mentions anything about envelopes specifically. Any info welcome! References to specific part numbers, AppleLink messages, etc., even more welcome!
