I'd be greatly appreciative if someone who owns such a system could answer some questions for me. Such as: a) Can it access the 3.5 drives in IBM 720k mode? b) Any problems running software packages such as Turbo-C (I run mostly unprotected business and language packages.) c) Any comments from experience to warn/advise me about the system? Email replies will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -- John M. Adams --*-- Professional Student on the six-year plan!
