But Larry, my drive is on the right side now and it does not seem upset. Hmm, did they move the drive back there? Jumpin' in Jer

Jerry, I think the A-500 is supposed to be in a package similiar to the C-128, except bigger of course. Your disk drive is on the right hand side of the front panel. Larry was trying to tell you the disk drive was on the right hand side panel, where your expansion port is sitting right now. They probably put it on the right hand side instead of the left side since most people (including me) are right handed, so it is more natural to put disks in and out of the drive with your right hand. They can't put the disk drive in the front, since there is a keyboard there. I could be proven wrong on all this, as all my comments are based on what I have heard on hear over the past couple of months for the A-500. We just have to wait three weeks for the full scoop. 73, Kelly

Thanks Kelly… I don't like to tantalize, and I don't like to hold back info, so I am stuck between a RAwKey and a Hard Drive when it comes to talking about some things. Your predictions sound pretty sensible to me. Regards, Larry.

Thanks.. I "try" not to ask people questions that they shouldn't answer, so since I knew most of what can be said, I passed it on. I wouldn't mind having a hard drive to be stuck next to!! 73, Kelly
