Thsnks, Jim.  They would be fun to play with.  I have an offer of a
loan of an FA-410, but the existence of driver floppies makes your
510 particularly interesting.  USB, of course, would solve many
problems, but 3.11 drivers may be exciting.

What sort of schedule do you have?  I'm often close to Nashua, but
not during business hours.
