Given the price and wide availability of the HP surestore 4020i (a big stack at CompUSA at $999.00), I think that is one to support. The best way to proceed would be to let Joerg finish the preliminary support for the "Plasmon" he has while tracking down the programmer documentation for the Surestore. Then you can buy it and immediately make some headway with it. -- Peter Dufault Real Time Machine Control and Simulation HD Associates, Inc. Voice: 508 433 6936 dufault@hda.com Fax: 508 433 5267
