--Thanks Mike, yeah I have the port replicator. The dock II adapter is a little
connector piece that they sell especially for the dock II. I've gotten in touch
with a guy that lives down the street from me that is gonna sell me the dock II and
a scsi cdrom for $45. And since he's right here, I don't have to pay for shipping.
Thanks for the offer though. This list rocks.
