<<3. Somewhere along the line, IOM chose (or had no other choice) to start out with an external drive. This was a big mistake in my opinion for the reasons I've stated in previous posts. >> "actually, rll, IOM didn't choose, as you suggest; it was suggested to them by the OEMs with which they were dealing at the time, a list of which can be found in prior press releases. The OEMs wanted an external device...it was their marketing, their game. " Darrell, I think you are correct about this and that's why I put "or had no other choice" in parens. rll P.S.
