My second question concerns the hard drive. What is the

Sounds like its the one.
The Top layer is an IDE drive - this sits on the IDE to SCSI
adaper/board/two ended card underneath.
Just carefully take the top drive off and replace with a more high powered
IDE drive. Make sure the pins all go in the right places - it also reverses
the drive in the bay
I'd be interested in one of those EIDE - SCSI converters--any info on
make, model #, where to get one, etc?

an Apple offering, the 1300 MB drive was a

I have 8.1 running on my PB520c/12MB ram/320MB hard drive with RAM Doubler
maxing the ram to 32MB. Works pretty good.
Though I still have not resolved the whole remote access/PPP/Config PPP

Make sure PPP is selected in the TCP/IP controlpanel
and configure using PPP server. Make sure you have the
