No. Dell, Gateway, etc. make the decisions based on business. That's why Dell has shipped so many IBM crap hard drives that crap out right at or after the warranty period-- because they know it'll be cheaper to replace a few versus ship better quality hard drives... -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
