[T] Just did, it *measures* 9.5mm (vernier calliper) .. so, what I was asking/ suggesting is that I would 'like' a bigger capacity drive in my 50, I don't want the risk the "it may or may not wreck your libby" scenario and you suggested in a previous post that 8.x mm drives were still easily available (though others suggest they have not found it so?). So, my suggestion was (sorta half jokingly and thinking you might have other machines that were directly suitable for a 9.5mm drive) that you might like to swap the 4.3G drive you have just won with my 6G? If you don't need the 6G then maybe you would be interested to sell me the 4.3G or take the 810 in part x etc? > > > But I used Win98's DriveSpace to make it appear I still have over 400MB > free. I have maps of NY, VT, CT, and maybe FL in it. [T] Not sure what mapping software you use Pres but I find Mapsource is a bit graphics / processor hungry and therefore wouldn't want to burden the Libby with any disk compression utils if I could help it? > Thanks [T] All the best and thanks again ...
