The nice part about it is that although you created a 4gig file its only 
takes on the size of the loaded files, elastic partitioning <g>. Yes I left 
it at 4gig too as I am almost at the stage whereby I seldom use it.
Know of any good linux rippers (mpeg) and anything to take the place of
FlaskMpeg ?

Now thats is wierd, as I am on cable it sees out on the net and also ses the 
local files on linux on boot. I used to use it with early version 2.0 with a 
modem, it was fine.

Well thyey are really Atapi-Scsi to start off with not really ide, however I
thought that , that would be the case. I can burn on Suse but I do like Nero 
and burning VCD's is in its infancy with linux but doable (all command line)

Did you miss out on the $89.00 special offer some months ago; yes I agree on 
win4lin, its to messy and no where as professional to vmware. BTW did you 
donload the full manual in pdf format ? quite extensive..........
