I didn't get home until late today, should get a chance to call
TimeLine in the AM (Or fax them, worst case.)  And I asked the questions
of Moophus, so he can answer if he has the data & the time...

  {Someone asked if the HD used in these was a standard 2.5" drive, or a
laptop drive, btw;  2.5" drives ARE laptop drives, usually, AFAIK.  The
2.5" drives I have are all IN laptops (except for the 120 Mb spare that
came out of my laptop!)}

-----------------------------------------------------------------

 [Charles, please consider this rev. 0 mod 4]:

 "BURNING QUESTIONS":
        Does the on-board IDE controller support HD's over 527 Mb?
          If so, How, specifically?  {LBA, EDPT, ???}
        What speed are the UARTs?  {SCM web pages don't cover these
          chips, anymore.)
        What are the power interface needs, voltage, current, etc.?
        Is EDO Ram compatible with this machine?
        Is the floppy cable standard?  Is the Epson floppy drive
          (SMD-1140?) included, if not, how much to add one?
        Is the PCMCIA Dock actually included, or not? <NOT, we're told>

        Shipping: HUB is apparently required;  Can they ship just
boards,
          or ship the entire mess to here & I pull the boards, or ???

 DEFINITELY:                      [5]
 PROBABLY:                        [8]
 MAYBE:                           [1]
 Remotely Possibly:               [0]
