Well, my StarMax 4000/200 finally died. it was the pram chip I'm pretty sure but not 
certain. She lasted 
many years and I thought there might never be an end.  I decided not to Ebay (a verb, 
right?) another 
one because , being in Canada, of the dollar exchange and the shipping and duty costs, 
besides not 
knowing what I would be getting sight unseen. I went to the local used computer stored 
 to look at the 
G3's and  ended up with a G4 tower instead. Then after the surgical transplant of my 
80 gig HD and my 
CD-RW from the old machine to the new, I was in shock. I suddenly realized that I've 
left the old 
technology behind. no more SCSI, ADB connectors, serial or parallel cables which means 
leaving my 
scanner, printer and various external HD and whatnot behind, unless I get a SCSI 
adaptor to USB! IT 
was too much too fast. I wasn't ready. I'm in grief counselling now, looking for 
closure. 

One of you have expressed interest in my old power supply. I've also got ram and a 
JoeCard G3, 260 
MHZ card, and a brand new battery which I bought on spec. I think this is what my 
little sweetie would 
have liked: to be a organ donor, to keep active in another's body contributing to this 
world. 

I want to thank you all for the help you've given me these many years. I've never felt 
alone with my old 
technology being with this group. I'll miss you ....I need to stop now....tears aren't 
good for my keyboard.
