Thats something I had not thought about. I keep forgetting that a lot of the
these things are built into the MB now a days. In the coco days, everything
was an add on, no matter what.

I was thinking along the lines, CPU out of old and into new, memory out of
old and into new, modem our of old and into new, video care out of old and
into new, etc. Newly stuffed MB into tower, DONE.

Alas, no so.
