They're expensive, unreliable, utterly fucked pieces of shit. Iomega can die. You can quote me on that. I've lost three drives and ten disks since 1997. I don't even use the fucking thing anymore, haven't relied on it for three years. Buy an additional hard drive an install Debian on this. Set your bootmanager to find it or use a boot floppy. You'll be far more satisfied. Peace. -- Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ What part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
