FWIW, I upgraded my 9600 by adding a PCI-IDE card (Sonnet's was on
sale at the time) and picked up a 20 GB Maxtor for a total cost of
$200. This was a while ago, and you might be able to do a little
better now. I use this drive as my boot disk, and it has been plug
and play from the start and an upgrade I don't think about any more.

Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
Why don't more people succeed? The main reason is that they overestimate
what they can do in a single year and underestimate what they can
accomplish in 10 years. --Tony Robbins
