Hi I'm new on the list (lurking for a few weeks), having just switched from using Duos for years to a 5300. The expansion capabilities of the 5300 are fun. re: booting from CF on a 5300- what kind of speed improvement do you find, if any? What about speed just using CF for virtual memory? I'm weighing if it is worth setting up CF for my 5300. My 5300 has 48 mb of ram, and is agonizingly slow with either virtual memory or ram doubler, but not enough free ram to open some programs simultaneously. So virtual memory on a CF card might work well if it is just slightly slower than RAM itself.
Second, I have a vst internal zip drive which works great, except if the computer is put to sleep when there is no zip disk in the drive, when reawakened it will not recognize the drive. I searched on the web and found no mention of this problem. OS is 8.6 and iomega drivers came with the drive. Its no big deal, I just try to leave a zip disk in. Occasionally it is annoying.
