As others have noted, most of them do. It is servo operated--closes a switch that activates an electronic mechanism. Also, as noted, the front of the drive is designed to stick through a rectangular cut out, but I suppose it's possible to drill a hole to get access to the button. The real fun begins if you need to use the emergency mechanical eject, the one most people keep a spare straightened paper clip for. Unlike most removable disk drives, it's located on the back of the unit, not the front. -- Paul F. Henegan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
