I've got a 110CT, and I'm absolutely certain there's no USB port built in. Is this part of the Enhanced Port Replicator? Are you using a PCMCIA card for this? That said, I want USB on my 110 :-) Al [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sydney / Australia ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

Can you have both Linux and Windows 98se (with disk manager) Yes, you can. With dual boot. And see the Win$ partition in Linux And also see the linux partitions in Win$. I have not installed dual boot. I prefer to have Win$ on a separate machine with Samba between them. But, in either case, Linux only or Dual boot, do not forgt the Hibernation partition ! ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

I don't really like millenium anyway!! i am sure that many of you have Japanese models that had to be converted. should i expect complications with things like the bios or boot sector or anything else that is not blown away with a reformat? (a short rant about sony)hopefully to make you feel better about your wonderful toshibas... sony is not a customer oriented company. they charge exorbitant prices and atttempt to sting you for more money with proprietary issues. every sony product is designed to force you to buy the only sony compatibles...sony!! i know this is the norm for some products with some compatibles but with sony, it is everything. for instance, you cannot reliably use a sony picturebook with anything other than a sony cd-rom. peace:) brennan _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **
