> But unfortunately this does not work on non-laptops (ie desktops). > PCMCIA HDs Actually, it does if you have a PCMCIA to PCI/ISA card converter in it! Allows you to use all PCMCIA cards in your desktop. --- That said, here's a few ideas -- search www.deja.com for other users to see if they got a 20GB+HD + external enclosure going w/o external power. Maybe 4GB Microdrive/CF cards? go with slower 4200rpm HDs for the best chance of booting w/o external power - lower power consumption at spinup, usually. ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
