Hi Andy,

Me too! I'm not that keen on USB 2.0 HS even, from experience of others 
equipment..
I finally got a 30GB replacement HDD [only to improve on the capacity of 
the 6.4GB original], so when I get around to cloning the original to it, 
I can then install OS/2 MCPx or more likely eCS 1.2 on it!
