Really. I'd love to know where you can get 3.2Gb disks that have < 1024
cylinders so work in all the 486's I have. Or for that matter 3.2Gb PCMCIA
disks for the laptop.

I think a lot of people would disagree. I have friends whom I've given
things like spare ISA video cards because they couldn't afford to build
a machine except by collecting other peoples junk and buying the last
few pieces.
The UK isnt a paticularly backward part of the world either. You go try
upgrading from a 540Mb hard disk to 3.2Gb on an Indian wage packet for
example.
