Don't the SanDisks come with a little "faux CDROM" with the drivers on it? My SanDISK CRUZER thumbdrive has a little faux CDROM that purports to have some M$ drivers. It's very annoying. > No wonder Vista sales are in the toilet and Linux is still gaining in > popularity. I find more things in Linux that "just work" than I do in Vista. I thought that even "in the toilet" Vista sales were larger than the entire Linux userbase. I have a friend that's been *trying* to go non-M$ for years in favor of Linux. He recently gave up and went back to M$, as Linux just doesn't have the tools he needs. He has a lot of expertise with various visualization tools -- and of those tools that are available for Linux, he says, they're bad ports. -- Inertia is a major player in the universe.
