Simon Shuker;
What I had wanted to say was that the IBM may be better for the 100/110 as
they have **Free** software, that will allow the 100/110 to work with the
larger than 8GB drives.
Sorry to confuse you, but the hard drive installed in my 1100v is a
Toshiba MK1214GAP:

Works great, better than in my case at least than the original drive. Yes
this is a
9.5mm drive. Didn't put it in myself, so I can't help with that, but it is
what is
reported. The 1.1 bios seem to have no problems with it, and doesn't use any
other drivers, that I can tell. You get the full drive 11.2 GB after
formatting
as the C: drive.

I would **think** that the 1100 would be the same as the 1100v, but the Bios
is NOT the same, the 1100 is at least at 1.3 which is older than the 1100v's
1.1
for what it may be worth, Also the motherboards are ***NOT*** the same!
The connector for the remote control are not the same. As to the 1050 I know
nothing about it.
