Service does still exist.... - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

  We had this
service done on the boss' 5300ce back in '96... it's been
a trouper ever since. it's plugged into the Prime acting as a serial
console (even though the Prime is still down...). 
        Gee Doug, what's the use of it being used as a terminal for a
 system that isn't functioning at the moment? <g>  
it's called -Hope-.... oops, it's dashed now...
...
  The CE has a great
 screen...higher res. than the 5300c.  Still the 5300c and it's active
 matrix screen is nicer than the 5300cs.  The 5300 may be a bit slow,
 but it feels real solid now and with the various expansion bay drives
 and the internal ethernet/video upgrade, it'll do me for a while. 
Agreed... System 7.5.5 runs fairly fast on it, but 8.0 is a bit
of a dog... too much emulated code remaining?
