- Yeah, I guess that's the problem. IBM's prices on MBs are the same as a
- complete (non-IBM) system would cost, INCLUDING HD and monitor. I was
- actually interested in 1) whether I could get a non-IBM MB to fit in the box
- and 2) how much of my present system I would have to trash to get the thing to
- work. This was to help me make a decision about whether to sell the 50Z
- outright or attempt this upgrade and possibly sell the incompatible parts.
