um, stupid question perhaps but why does usb matter for a hard drive? This
laptop does have 1.0, which is why I am thinking HD not thumb drive. For
most of what I currently use a thumb drive for (sneakerware) it doesn't
matter but I don't want to run red hat from it. Also, the keystrokes ofr the
CMOS don't seem to be documented anywhere, googled it to death. (More
precisely, there are several documented for this model and it doesn't seem
to be any of them)
