	My mailer couldn't do anything with any of George's addresses -

George,
	Your symptom sounds much like a problem my office "-A" has when it
has been a long time.  When i use SET-UP ^SET-UP it goes through the self-
test then stops, never reaching the point where i can select a boot disk.
It also has *NO HARD DISK*.  The frequency of the problem was reduced by 
replacing the floppy controller (DEC office - we can afford to do that).
I've been tempted to try a new motherboard, but it wasn't that pressing
of a problem, yet.  My home machine has never had that problem, so one of 
the things i looked for was differences, starting with ROM rev. level.
IDENTICAL.  If we are talking about the same sort of problem, i will start
looking closer and see what i can find.
