Another New Guy...

Hi all!
I just got a an S1000HD with an external 44mg SCSI for around 
$100US.  Of course the first thing you gotta do is open her up (to 
clean and chekc stuff out).  Of course the backlighting is getting 
replaced before re-assembly.  Once I'm familar with the OS of 
this unit I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions and eventually be 
able to offer some suggestions of my own.  But I'm getting ahead 
of myself.  Many of my questions have been adked and 
answered previously so I'll try not to be redundant.  But I will start 
with one I haven't seen yet:  the S1000 i bought needs some 
spare parts.  The previous owner jammed some excessively 
long screws in the rack ears and destroyed the plastic part of the 
power switch.  The actual switch works fine but the part the 
shows on the front panel is gone.  I've replaced the screws with 
the correct ones but I'm not sure where to get the switch.  I'm 
also looking for the DATA and CURSOR knobs.  All of this is 
cosmetic, I know, but I would like it to look as stock as possible.  
Inside I'll rod out, but that's a topic for another post.  Thanks for 
your help and great site by the way!
