that without the PPC upgrade.
There's one not so little thing about the 500 series...they're *heavy*,

Luca,
I bought a 540C for my high-school (junior) kid and

Paul gives you good advice. You did not say whether you are comfortable taking

cost you $40-65. Many of us now do these tasks ourselves. It
