That's your bogie. 8-) If you look at some of the comments made by 
Levitts, Gibson and others during that period, you'll also see where they
*really* did most of their testing on the early Linux kernels, rather than on
Windoze, because of the ability to punch the drive parameters in as conditions
changed. I wish I knew where some of the written documentation from that 
period
of time went. <sigh> It was the first incidence of an open forum on drive
specifications, but without it, we probably would still be using old, slow,
small hard drives. Can you believe a 150 gigabyte UDMA/EIDE drive for under
$300? Egods. How things change in this industry. 

<brightening> They say Mandrake 9.1 and KDE 3.1 are both coming out the cooker 
soon. That, too, works for me. 8-)
