I think Linux can support the pcmcia flash meory cards which have pretty good capacity. And as for the speculation on the hard drives, that depends. If they include a type 3 slot, you can get a drive to fit. But it will be expensive. But to give some real world idea of expansion: A 32 MB compact flash card runs around $45 right now at CDW. A 128 MB compact flash card is about $110. A 256 MB card can be had for $330. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net The mind is like a parachute; it works much better when open.
