> > > I hope I haven't been unknowingly creating magnetic havoc all these years
Magnetic Havoc Wasn't that the name of the 1st Mac virus ...:) This tidbit was passed along to me from a friend who worked on electronics. I do not know how much the magnetic field would have to be to harm the HD., he just said not a good idea.. I know if the IBM people asked me if I used a magnetized screw driver to install the drive that for sure the limit for "user abuse".on a hard drive would be exceeded. I have found forceps work pretty good at getting at that last screw that always seems to fall in that ##** place. Geoff -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
