Well, this is the only reason I could see for still using FAT on a removable drive -- perhaps the drive needs to be read on other operating systems. I personally do not dabble in external storage, except for doing scratch-type work. I'd rather have my stuff backed up by a datacentre, not carried around by me (who has a tendency to leave his laptop in public places by accident :)). - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer III |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFeZEkmb+gadEcsb4RAgxVAJ4+t5W+N3LUqkTwZHzhFOiM26CbywCfXgzX 76Epm+JxEzg57+Aagi/Fbns= =Ta+F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
