Hello, Roy.  Back on 8/28 we were talking about - -

 RJT> Then I finally hooked up with my brother,  who'd upgraded his system.
 RJT> I got his old MB,  a Celeron 366.  Now all I need is a 256M ram stick
 RJT> and an AGP card to bring that up.  And figure out what HD of what I
 RJT> have here is going in there.  And what monitor I'm going to use with
 RJT> it.  And where the heck I'm gonna *PUT* it in this mess...   :-)

Do you have manual for that board yet?  Best be careful, since a lot of
boards which support Intel chips of that vintage won't recognize more
than 128MB on a stick.

Same with AGP video cards - - no use to get a 4X AGP vidcard and try to
put it in a board which will only support 1x or 2x.

 RJT> But first I've gotta get this scanner working,  which he found for me
 RJT> for only $10.  I'm going to use this AHA-1540 card that I found in a
 RJT> pizza box  and which Wayne was kind enough to find jumper settings
 RJT> on a while back.

Hee.  Since your travelling entourage would only allow you to take back
a "pizza box" full of junque,  its a good thing I had a big one on hand.
Was nice of Nancy to relent and let you hide that 400W power supply
under the seat.  I figured if I brought it and waved it at you, you'd
want it, and I guess the look on your face caused her to have mercy.
[:-D.

... "Bother!" said Pooh, as he realized his entire 'puter system
is obsolete.
