I was more thinking if the whole lot ended up in the drink, most CD-R disks are waterproof so at least the pictures you'd taken up to then will survive. I don't like the chances of you being able to recover a 5 gig PCMCIA disk as easily ... besides its cheaper to make 2 copies on CD, keep one with you and perhaps post the other back home when you get a chance so you're covered both ways ... >> You mean you just suspended it each time instead of shutting it down? >> I am impressed! >Yes, I used "suspend to disk" to save energy.

Ah IC ... I've still got the original 95 install on my libby50, I'll be trying to triple boot 98, NT and Red Hat once I get my 20 gig disk ;-) >The Reason for using NT is, that I never used any Windows 9x and I >never want to use it... hehe I use 9x only when I really must (or when I'm set up as a dedicated gaming rig), I'm an 2k/NT/Redhat/Novell person otherwise ;-) >For Win2000 a Lib 100 is a bit weak, so for me the only choice ist NT >4.0!

I wonder how well NT will run on a 50CT with only 16 meg RAM ... - Raymond --- /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?" | | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.
