8>< snip! I don't recall ever saying that CF was immaculate. I've had a hard disk fail three days after installation. Does that mean that ALL hard drives are untrustworthy? What I say is that CF is tarred by a very old brush. Early in the day flash technology was <very> limited. There was no wear levelling and the cell process was nowhere near as well developed as it is today. Your experience is unfortunate but there is no need to be bitter about it when the overall failure rate is very low. Not zero, just very low. Show me an IC with a zero failure rate over millions of units shipped can you? Any IC? >Cosmic radiation? Sarcasm. Rod/ _____ Depressed? Me?
