 Would it be possible to boot from either of these?

The flash IDE HDD, yes

Anything (other than the OEM FDD) in the PCMCIA/PCcard slot, no

I know the legwork has been done to make it possible to boot Linux via first
the OEM FDD and then from there from an Iomega 40MB mini-zip-thing (sorry...
completely forgotten the correct name!) in the PCMCIA/PCcard slot - but
never tried it myself...

[LIB] Possible Libretto siting?

Looking at the pictures of Steve Fossett sitting in the cabin, it seems he has 
a Libretto 50/70 in the large port replicator. He has just completed 
ballooning solo around the world, one of the 'classical' milestones has just 
been achieved.

This picture was the best I found, 300 KB, be warned!

No doubt about it - that's a 50 or 70 indeed. Just caught it on the 6 
o'clock news.

Thinks... I wonder how much *that* one would go for on eBay?

Oh yes, that is absolutely a Libretto in an enhanced replicator. By the
looks of the aspect of the screen and the metal sticker on the upper left I
would say a US-spec 50 or 70.

I reposted the link because there was a typo in it... the last letter should
be a g not a y.

 Looking at the pictures of Steve Fossett sitting in the cabin,
 it seems he has a Libretto 50/70 in the large port replicator.

 Why isn't he subscribbled to the list?
 Maybe he is, but he just lurks...

 He was, 5 years ago. 3 years ago, he tried to leave but unsuccessfully
 unscribbled for a year, then gave up and took up ballooning to escape
 the Internet traffic.

I remember this guy! Wasn't he an unsubscribbler, not an unscribbler?

[LIB] Re: [LIBRETTO] Libretto Digest #1727

2002-07-02 Thread Eugene Hsu

From: Eugene Hsu [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Re: [LIBRETTO] Libretto Digest #1727

Regarding the IBM 8.1 GB HD's, the price was cheaper than previously 
mentioned by the COMPGEEKS mailing list.  With a discount code, each unit 
was only $49.00, so I bought two.  The unit comes formated as FAT (16 or 32 
I do not recall), and it is immediately recognized in Windows 98 and Windows 
2K.  Power comes through the PCMCIA card, but there seems to be an external 
power adapter that may or may not be connected.

As a side note, the speed doesn't seem very fast, but then again my 70CT is 
pretty slow itself, and it is going through a 16 bit interface.

Last night I backed-up 7GB of files from my 70CT, and it did not complain.  
What I have not tested is what would happen if I hook up both of the drives 
to the Libretto with the enhanced docking station.  I wonder whether having 
three hard drive controllers on a 70CT would really confuse it.

Power is from the pcmcia slot, but I am interested in taking this unit apart 
(and losing the 2 year warranty) to see whether external power can be used.  
The clever idea that I have (might be insane) is that if external power can 
be used to power the HD unit, then a 40GB+ laptop drive can be installed 
there.  The next step would be to purchase the new Toshiba MP3 player (iPod 
clone) that is sold in Japan now because it supports removable PCMCIA disk 
drives.  With this setup, I could have a small portable MP3 player with the 
5GB HD as standard, and then at home and work I could have an MP3 monster 
base station with 40+ GB HD's using these external units.  Most likely I 
will not do that, but you have to have some dreams.  :)

Subject: Re: [LIB] Screen Enhancement

Optiview screen enhancement film.
www.polarvision.com

about 160% increase in daylight contrast when applied to a similar sized lcd
display panel, which is the same as what he noted with his libretto after he
put the films on.

www.arrow.com announced in March that they'd also sell their products in the
future.

In any case, he sent out a note that the film arrived, payment expected and
they'd be shipped soon.  about $27 for a sheet.  resonable and fair.

you don't need to worry about stripping it off later - you can just cut a tiny
sample to put on the corner of the screen to 'test' it and see if it's worth
it. - something I plan on doing before retrofittting the entire screen.  also
will test to see if scratch resisitance is as good or not

anyways, looking forward to the film.

From the FAQ:
Q: How will Fossett keep in touch with Mission Control at Washington
  University? 

  A: A laptop computer will be Fossett's primary means of
communicating (by
  satellite e-mail) with Mission Control and his meteorology
team. Transmissions
  will be sent via the INMARSAT C satellite, which sends the
data from an
  antenna on the balloon to a satellite and on to receiving
stations on Earth. It
  operates at approximately 2,400 bits per second. INMARSAT C,
which is a
  satellite e-mail, will be the main means of communication
with the Mission
  Control Center.
