Yes I know... but that's what I meant anyway... I am very excited (since I will be receiving a new QubIDE soon ;-) HINT and a QL (HINT) ) ... but what I meant in essence and according to what you told me a while ago, the PCMCIA type port could be very easy to recreate... BTW: I did find an adapter that still connects on the IDE port and is a 100% PCMCIA Type I/II and CF compatible but needs drivers :-) (Too expensive though) >Nasta
