Answer: Don't start checking your mail box for this one for 6 weeks at least. Probably more like Feb. 1 or so. Production of upgrade boards has just barely gotten underway and the rather slim supply of 68040's is being heavily directed toward the NeXTstation platform right now. At least that is what I heard 2 weeks ago. I believe 68030 cubes are still being produced and NeXT doesn't even have many of the new style cube "face plates" as yet. So enjoy the holidays. -Bill- -- __________________Prof. William V.
