Thanks for the encouragement Ross.  I hadn't considered the USB board
even though I picked one up from NewtonSales when he offered them at a
discount not too long ago, I just haven't had the time (or the nerves)
to perform the insertion surgery yet.  I need to email him as well as I
couldn't get either of my Newtons to read the card he sent with it, not
that it's a big issue at this point.  I'm still just trying to "get up
to speed".

Rusty,

Your not the only one making this journey. I just got a 2100 for the
first
time as well. I've been a 120 user for years. Leaning toward the USB
board
offered by NewtonSales with the Memory card. So far it seems the
easiest way
to connect the MP at this point.
