Okay... great.  I was figuring that it wouldn't have been a huge problem to 
run one of the utilities I found that would have just wiped the entire 
drive... but 20GB would have taken a while in DOS with the P120.

Yeah... you know I was just up the 405 from you when I was out there.  A lot 
of good computer parts companies to get stuff from quick.  Though it's like 
the Microsoft love/hate relationship a bit, I do miss Frys.  I miss that 
Santa Ana swap meet too.

Anyway, UPS tracking shows the drive left Jacksonville for Tampa at 2PM 
today... I'll expect it Tuesday.  That way if it arrives Monday I'll be 
pleasantly surprised. :-)

Matt
