Hmm. I didn't know that would be a bad deal. I've got a 755CE with a
486 in it, the maximum memory the unit will take, and a 5Gig HD. I'm
planning to install Linux on it, as soon as I have some spare time,
and a PCMCIA SCSI card and make it a disk server on my home network. I
figure that just in spare parts, it's worth more than $300.

Ron.
