Hello,

Yeah that is drastic.

I thought I would try the 486 install image for Mandrake 7.1 but I cannot
find it.  I have a few other things to check out before I drop it.

Unfortunely I do not have a spare Adaptec 2940 and do not feel like spending
100 to 200 dollars to try out software.  I only run CDROMs, scanners, and
tape drives on my computers so getting a 2940UW or later is overkill.
