Well, I just received my Phoenix Expansion Chassis (with power supply) for the A1000 via mailorder, but there's a problem. While the documentation that came with the box states that it works with the Micron 2-meg memory board, it says that I need a bus terminator to get it up and running. So I called Phoenix Electronics at (913)-632-2159, but this phone number has been disconnected. Does anyone know if they are still in business? If not, will the previously posted instructions for building a bus terminator work with this contraption? If yes, could someone kindly repost those instructions? Thanks. -- /// \\\/// UUCP : {ucdavis|lll-crg}!csusac!maltasr \XX/ Internet: maltasr@csusac.csus.edu
