Comes with the adaptec slimscsi 1460 (which is supported) and is basicly a scsi cdrom discman. I found one place that has it for $267, but not in stock. http://www.computers4sure.com/product.asp?ProductId=51908&affid=874&adid=874 Full info: http://www.ita.sel.sony.com/support/techspecs/support.cgi/prd650wn I'm going to try and get hold of one (since a portable scsi cdrom drive and the adaptec card would both be useful). If anyone is interested I'll let people know how it goes when it and my (just ordered) vaio 505tr arrive :) P. -- pir pir@pir.net pir@shore.net pir@net.tufts.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
