Sorry but it will be some time.  I just fired up this new PC (boy is it fast).  I have alot of software packages to install on this PC that I had on the old one.

I have so much data to transfer.  That is the biggest reason that I been it putting off getting a new PC.  But I had too because the old one was getting so it would not run any new software.  Old one had 1/4 meg memory now I have 8 meg.

I do remember the max was 21.6 gr but don't know the starting load.
