Zeuspaul >>Is the Sony format proprietary? Can it take the place of a floppy? ie. Is there support so you can boot from the disc?<< All good quesitons. I believe I've seen a Stephen post where he indicated that the format was proprietary. As far as being bootable, I don't recall reading any of his posts where he talked about that. It's still in the 'vapor' stage. Regards - Emory

Zeuspaul >>Is the Sony format proprietary? Can it take the place of a floppy? ie. Is there support so you can boot from the disc? << On the Syquest thread I posted a question about the Sony drive and got the following response from Mark: >>For information on Sony/Fuji HiFD drives: fujifilm.com ita.sel.sony.com Also, search ZDNet for HiFD - there's plenty of information.<< Hope this helps Regards - Emory
