Well, I would agree, except this is a company laptop and will be used
with XP a significant portion of the time.  I bought a second HD for it
to use while traveling to avoid lugging two laptops (my T23 and it). 
The drive will also fit my T23 so I have a spare drive.  XP will be
primary, so I'd like to make them co-exist if possible.
