I, Neal Miller previously wrote: I'm in the process of hunting for a decent 386-33. The one I have in mind come with a 120Mb IDE hard drive. I remember hearing that the Norton Utilities "CALIBRATE" program is dangerous to one particular type of drive. I can't remember for the life of me if it was the SCSI, IDE or what, but if anyone could help out, I'd appreciate it. Oh, while I'm posting, I ask if anyone could tell me anything about the reputation of the company. Un- fortunately, I can't remember the name, but if anyone has the June '91 issue of Computer Shopper about, the ad is on page 65, give or take three pages, and has the word "Professional" in the company name. I've since found out that the name is "PC Professional", and the ad is on pages 63-65 in the June '91 Computer Shopper. Please send me (mail, please) and useful information on either the hard drive/Norton Calibrate, and/or the "PC Professional" corporation. Much Thanks, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Neal Miller | "Why not go mad?" | millernw@clutx.clarkson.edu Clarkson University | - Ford Prefect | millernw@clutx.bitnet ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
