Thanks. I'm basing this off of some articles on Low End Mac. The primary assertion is that the CF is faster than hard disk (although even if it's equal, the battery savings would be worth it) for use as virtual memory space. And with fairly large CF cards available, it's possible to have a copy of, say, OS 8.1 and an app or two on a card. When I get the machine to try this on (a few weeks), I'll let y'all know how it turns out. - Eric. -- Eric Strobel (fyzycyst@NOSPAM^mailaps.org) ===================================================================== What if the 'Hokey-Pokey' really IS what it's all about?? ===================================================================== ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
