PS I almost forgot!!! If you are also running DOS or Win98, or even Win2K or XP without service packs be very careful since, unpatched, these OS's do not natively support 48bit addressing and top out at 137GB (128 GB binary, iirc). These OS's can waste the data on hard drives exceeding such size especially as they approach being full of data. You can thank Dani, I believe, as well as the underlying solid quality of the "Quaint, Dead OS" for making this a non-issue in OS/2. I guess Billy still hasn't learned from his "Nobody will ever need more than 1 megabyte of ram" days.... either that or so far Windows hasn't been able to steal the best technology fast enough. ;) Jimmy [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
