Not sure how the Maxine (5000/25?) looks, but the 3100 has a couple of leds on
the back side at least which tell the status of the machine.

What's bothering me is that I have a cable between my 3100 and the monitor, but
would like to run the monitor on my 5000/120. However, the monitor cable from
the 3100 doesn't fit the 5000... (It fits in the keyboard/mouse port). Oh well,
time to start bugging the local computer groups :-)
