There are a lot that will read the gestalt ID; Apple System Profiler is probably the most reliable at translating that to a machine name but it doesn't work well on 68Ks unless you're running 8.1. MacEnvy and TattleTech are great for extracting the gestalt ID, and putting that along with "gestalt ID" into the search engine in the Apple knowledge base will usually find everything you need on *any* Mac. -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> _________________________________________________________________ -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
