back in 1995(last time that i used seagate) i had 2 conner 420MB drives and 1 seagate 540 (and now they are the same company *shudder*) fail within 3 months of using them because of the powersaving auto spindown. ever since i have not used that feature unless its on a laptop. and i've only had 1 drive die since(maxtor) in 1998 .. > > urgh, however.. i still have to use Windows for Dreamweaver, any suggestions > anyone? > > it needs to be a WYSIWYG-editor (till i finally cleanup the generated code) > that handles nested tables well.. and yes i know they shouldnt be used too > much, and i wouldnt if i had a server to run apache and a DB use vmware..win4lin or something.. i use vmware and it works good. needs a lot of ram.. but with 256MB sticks going for under $95 these days ...doesn't hurt to get 512MB :) ive been using vmware since the very earliest betas..works great on win9x/nt/2k and freebsd4 slackware/debian/redhat/corel/caldera even solaris 7 x86. rock solid program, never had it crash on me. doesn't work for games and stuff..but should be fine for dreamweaver if thats what you wanna use..... nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
