I was thinking, for reference, about a demountable disk pack. Clearly the USB socket needs a little claw to grasp the stick until it's logically unmounted. "...do a CD/DVD >eject while..." How? Physically yank it out of the slot? Or eject it with Exploder? OS X won't let you do that while files are open. Can Windows be so stupid? I thought the mechanical eject button was disabled while the volume was mounted. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
