Dammit, and I've just blagged myself a free G3, to go alongside the
15" Powerbook, the Umax 9000 and the 68030-based Road Apple. I'm sure
I'll cope with PPC-based Macs for a while yet mind.

I'm tempted to break the G3 for parts as its OF won't let me boot off
my Tiger DVD and the RAM alone is worth about #60, never mind the nice
UW2-SCSI disk...

I've still got the U30 kicking around, plus there's a load of
miscellany floating around the office if you'd care to visit Studley
and take it away.
