Should I open it? <grin> > >Vaughan It you're working with Sys 7.0 - yes!!! LOL. One of my earliest experiences with a Mac - a IIci in the fall of '90... "loaded" w/8MB Ram and a whoppping 240MB HD. Anyways, I'm getting familiar with it and all a few days after purchase when, all of a sudden, files start dissapearing from the list view (!). Seriously - I forget the details now, but it was along the lines of resorting in list view and <poof> - seeing files disappearing. Horror!!! Seems to have been a "bug" in Sys 7.0. 7.0.1 fixed it. Phew... and yes. all my files were intact. But hey, it's your call. Sure would be pretty in that shrink-wrap and all ;-) -- Non Illegitimi Carborundum -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
