I’d certainly be willing to help you with this. It’s not any trouble at all, the hardest part is lugging an iMac DV SE running Mac OS 9 out of my garage.

I’m in Ohio, and there are other list members who may live closer to North Carolina and in even in the state. You might also want to talk to Ron Parker (who helped me back in the day) or Woody Smith.

Shoot me an email if you’re interested.
