OK, let's see if we can summarize your position: 1. MS continued to update XP after Vista's release but did not include this particular fix. 2. Apple has never updated Panther since Tiger's release. 3. Apple's response is superior. In short, never updating the older version is superior to updating it but omitting a fix for a drive type that nobody running XP actually has. The mind boggles. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
