Geoffrey,
Those were sold at Sears. Grab a copy of this week's Time magazine and look at
the letters to the editor. 4th time I have had one published in there, but the
first MASTHEAD quote. Sensational. Millions and millions of readers.

I found another 1400 that I had stashed. Tried it and could get no response other than
a little noise. So, assuming it is not the hard drive, I pulled that 2.G and put it in
the good 1400. The machine recognized it, but said it wasn't a HDD disk. I tried to
initialize it and it didn't happen.
I have 2 harddrives. One is 2.0 G and the other is 1.3 G. It was obvious, smelling
