A bug that causes major problems onn many systems.

 HM>>> I have the same Conner drive you have, Grant.

 HM> Let's hear it then. I have a Conner driver; CP == Conner Peripherals?

Yes.

 HM> What's CFA - the special branch of Conner making extra fast drives

Yep. Conner Filepro Advantage.

 HM>>> It scores about 800-900k on Norton 7 SYSINFO.
 >> Good for it. My CFA scores about 2.5mb/sec on Norton 8 SYSINFO.

 HM> We still don't have a common grounds for comparison, then. Your Conner

 HM> Grant.

Sorry, I'm not bullshitting. You have an older, slower Conner drive than I
do. Just see if you can get this thru your thick head...I HAVE A CFA, YOU
HAVE A CP. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT???

 HM>>> The new Western Digital drives are noisy, and a little clunky.
 >> Finally! You've just noticed my main argument! Hooray.

 HM> Your main argument is that they are very noisy and very slow. They are
 HM> a little noisy, but fast.

Noisy, yes indeed, noiser than any drive I've used. Fast, I think not. Not
compared to my Conner anyway.

Oh but I have Hamish.

 HM>>> However, it most certainly is much faster than the ancient, slow
 HM>>> Conner 170.

 >> It may be old, but it outperforms your drives. Slow?!

 HM> What's that? My Conner 170 outperforms my drives?

No I was referring to _MY_ Conner drive.

 HM>  Really, that's a marvel of modern logic. Marjorie, I just don't know how
 HM> theseyoung'uns do it these days.

Ask yourself one day, then you will find out.

 HM>>> I have both, you only have the Conner and some false statistics.
 >> Sorry, wrong again. You have a CP, I have a CFA. Large difference.

 HM> Let's see it then.

2500k/sec vs your 800k/sec... quite easy.

 HM>>> I have a nasty suspicion you're not going to win this year's
 HM>>> Nobel Prize for Literature.
 >> And who'd want to?

 HM> I don't think any comment here is really necessary. Tell me, do you
 HM> wear thick glasses?

Couldn't be thicker than yours.
