You might want to take a look at: http://www.itclearance.com/acatalog/Catalogue_Index_Low_End_Laptop_Drives_13.html They're in the UK but their web site says they will ship overseas (make sure they don't charge you the UK VAT if you're outside the EU!). I've never bought anything from them, I just came across their web site today whilst looking for something else.

Sorry Pres, I have to disagree with you there - my 100CT is as Matthew described as well. And the 100CT parts diagram I have doesn't show any screws securing the keyboard either.

Lee, another setting you could try is in options>preferences>plugins>input>Nullsoft MPEG Audio Decoder. There's a setting called "Buffer entire file from disk if file is smaller than:". If you can spare the memory then try setting this to 5000KB, or some other size that is larger than most of your mp3 tracks. That should give smoother playback (at the expense of longer gaps between tracks), and extend battery life as the lib will be able to put the hard disk to sleep while playing each track. .Andy ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

I had one of those "bounces" as well - they are not genuine bounces. If the ones you guys had were the same as mine then it's not your address that's being spoofed but the "from" address - they're not really from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In fact they're just standard Klez emails and it doesn't mean that you have sent the virus to someone else. ...Andy ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

For right-pondians, the Diamond Mako is in fact a Psion Revo, so $99 is a _very_ good price. Not sure if either of the reatailers David mentioned will ship internationally, but I'm almost tempted to find out - however as I've already got a Libretto and a Palm I can't really justify another little "toy" at the moment. ...Andy ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

I plan to clock it to 166, since I intend to Hi Tim, I wouldn't have too much faith in what the "Intel Inside" sticker says, I think they just slap on whatever they happen to have lying around at the time. The sticker on my Lib 100 says "Pentium II inside" (!!) but it's only a Pentium 166 of course.
