OK, found the %spftw.. and the unpacked Opal_103.bin in the
Win-user's LocalSettings temp dir. Now, have I proven worthy :)

Why don't you do all Plextor users a favour, and post how to extract
the firmware binary file from the supplied .exe on Linux, i.e. not
using windows. Including file names, file sizes, versions and byte
offsets, and some distinct strings to look for. Or did you just run it
on windows and found it left the file lieing around?

Plextor promised me to "enhance" the web server to inglude the pure binary.

As other people did mention enough things: all you need is an editor
that allows to to easily edit a binary file e.g. VED:

	ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/ved/

and "cabextract". So it works on UNIX.

Slackware included my "bpe" editor for years (may still, don't have one up to check) but the problem is not an editor, it's knowing what to extract.

 It seemed like a good idea at the time
