The most recent version, to my knowledge, is 1.14 - built may 15 2001.

There is a guy apparently selling 2kxl's on Ebay with OS 1.2 - which seems to be a new, as yet unreleased OS that allows the MPC to communicate with internal IDE cardreaders - he's selling them with a PC multi card reader built-in. Everybody is waiting for that version of the OS to be officially released.

I've never heard of OS 1.7 (or 1.6, 1.5, 1.4, or 1.3 for that matter)

2 different OS's, not to be used with ANY other machine than the one it was made for.

:? :?

"im not sure where you'll get the 1.70 at. not sure why you want to...."

It has been covered many times before. Check the archives if you care. There are a couple of bugs in 1.72 that are not in 1.70.

Irritated.

is that new OS really needed to upgrade to a cardreader. I believe MPC3000 has had one installed for a quite a while without that OS...can anyone clarify this
