Re: mini cds

[Chris Blouch]

It's more a matter of slot-loading vs tray loading. No slot loading 
drive, Mac, Windows or Linux, will handle the mini-CDs. Had a friend try 
it a few years ago and they ended up taking their machine to the shop to 
get the disc back out. Tray loading drives will either have a second 
smaller indent in the tray or the disc snaps onto the central spindle so 
it doesn't matter. Today with CD media so cheap, nobody would use a mini 
disc.

Naw, this was like a one shot deal.  So it doesn't work, no problem. 
 I just walked it over to my pathetic old windows laptop.  Now that I 
come to think of it though, the pc I'm installing on is going to have 
a slot.  I suppose I should really convert these drivers.

Ah well, onward...

Hi
if you want to use mini cds maybe you could buy an external usb dvdrw 
drive and plug it in when you want to use mini cds?

Tired of Microsoft Windows and paying thousands for screen-readers? 
try out NVDA, get a mac--, nvda--for Windows, or try out and switch 
to grml, Ubuntu, Vinux, or knoppix-adriane Linux desktops. Knoppix 
ubuntu and vinux-cli-max are the most accessible for beginners. also 
try vinux-gui and encourage those at www.cherrypal.com 
<http://www.cherrypal.com> to use windows-xp and nvda knoppix-adriane 
Vinux-cli-max or grml so all blind people can have an accessible 
computer.
