Thanks for the reply, Rich. I'm sure we can work out a deal off-list, but
since the answers to some my questions may be of help to others on the list,
I'm posting those questions here.

What is the difference in these two models? (83, 84 -- year of mfg., maybe??)

Why? Is the original hard drive unreliable? What type of drive originally
shipped with this system? MFM, like the 225?

I have a hoard of 225s (pulled from old pc clones) so replacing the original
drive shouldn't be too much of a hassle -- _if_ it's MFM and has a compatible
controller.

Also, I've seen a number of archive sites where CP/M software is available,
as well as the "CP/M Disk," which claims to have over 18,000 files. How can
I transfer CP/M files from my PC to a Kaypro?

Thanks,

Glen Goodwin
