honestly I think its not that easy. Herr B. has built a complete new board for
the V11 so I guess its also needed for the Diablo upgarde because the hardware
neded is toatally different. I addition I heard that he is a Fidelity
specialist. I am really wondering whether he was the one who modified the
machine (if it exsists at all). I already asked him but so far did not get e
reply. I even tried to contact the guy who tried to sell this machine. The email
address seems still existent, but again, no reply so far.

100% agreed. I would not give mine (Diablo) as it is really in mint 1a
condition. But I still have a Scorpio ;-) and an Super Expert and if only the
"shell" is needed...
