I had more luck Googling, I knew I had seen it before a few years ago and found it here: http://www.shanescot.com/photos/bw_mod/index.html There was also an AGP G4 mod where someone built a slot-loading drive into the ZIP bay. I just found out that that was done by the same person. The link for it is also on that page, check the second page of that mod to see the slot-loading drive in action. But doing this mod is not for the faint of heart since it requires a lot of cutting etc. HTH, Marc * * -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
