Paul - This is just to break your streak of four straight posts.<g> A couple personal observations. First, I am hearing advertisements on the radio for satellite TV. They claim it is much better than cable TV because you can be in control of your TV. You can pause any show, perform your own replay or record shows and play them in any order without a VCR. Now cable companies will have to respond with hard drive boxes or face losing market share. Secondly, I bought a Maxtor 20 GB, 7200 rpm drive for my personal computer. It is in addition to my 8.4 GB IBM drive. The speed and quietness are definitely noticeable. I think the difference has much more impact than a faster processor would. It is like a new computer.
