The Ultradisk sounds pretty cool, Howard, but your note immediately provoked
a rash of questions in my mind:

1) How much did it cost?
2) where can I get one?
3) How fast is it?  Comparable to a main memory Ramdisk or a harddisk?
   Transfer rate?
4) how big is it (physically)?
5) how long does the battery last?
6) you can auto boot from it? (you already answered this one)
7) is it compatible with harddisks? (and this one, but I'm runnning out
   of questions)
8) etc, etc, etc?

Expiring minds need to know!

Thanks!
