CURT & ALL,
My BBS is back. I was out of town, it was Thunder storm season, the dog ate
my diskette, etc. Actually I was out of town, our constant battle with heat
in the summer.
Interesting note: If you run your computer(s) constantly, as I do. Open them
up and blow out the dust every 2 or 3 weeks. I never realized how much it
builds up in that short of time.

R/GENEVA,
Thanks, so far no word on the BASIC ROM.  That would be nice, lets give him
a bit more time.  Do you have an easy way to make one?	Does the Geneva
have a speaker and a sound command like the HX-20?
  One thing I thought would be interesting to use a laptop computer for
would be to take it with you in the car, and have a little timing program
running that would allow you to tap the space bar every time the speedo
went another mile.  Then you could come home and plot a speed chart - it
would just be interesting to see what it looks like particularly during
rush hour, etc.  Obviously it would be more interesting if it were more
precise - like driven off the magnet on the wheel that runs the cruise
control, so you could see the speed on the tollway, etc.

II/E PROBLEM,NONE
Ah yes... I remember the screen full of garbage well.  About 5 years
ago I had a similar problem with my daughters II/e.  Unfortunately
I do not remember which chip.  I tried "rocking" all chips, connectors,
etc. all to no avail.  The "brute force" method I used (rather than
trying to isolate which gate in which chip was the offender) is as
follows: 1)Make a list of all the 74--- series chips in the machine.
Note, there are duplicates. 2)Purchase one each of all the chips (I
believe this set me back all of $5-7 at Tri-State Electronics.
3)Substitute half (binary search) of the chips at a time.  You will
soon correct (and if you continue isolate) the bad chip.  Any
questions?  Ask.  Good luck!  P.S. I don't remember which chip but the
symptoms you describe are exactly the same.
