Do you want me to try to recruit testers? These boxes should still work for about 5 more years, give or take. IBM *really* knew how to build stuff back then... If no testers show up, then the removal would be well justified. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
