The machine definitely has some kind of PPC upgrade. Even if you did manage to hack 8.5 to somehow run on it, Word98 and NS 4.76 won't run. Especially Word 98. Go to the Apple Menu and load up the Apple System Profiler. I can guarantee you it'll report something other than a 840AV. Scott Holder -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
