[sdiy] K2000 repairs, was Re: Andromeda A6 hardware questions

[Dave Kendall]

Many thanks Scott.

The switches are for 2 keyboards. I've also found an eBay vendor for 
the V3.87 upgrade for one of them.
On nice advantage of 3.87, apart from much faster SCSI load function, 
is that it will read K2600 programs, simply ignoring data that can't be 
used (sample skipping parameter for example)
SETUPS in the K2600 however are in a different format, so they don't 
translate.

cheers,
Dave
