...ok, here's my entry for dumb net question of the month:


...I'm currently using a miniscribe 30-meg HD with a Tandem controller. I
have access to either a 20 or a 10-meg HD sans controller (Miniscribe and
IBM makes, respectively), and what I want to know is can you mis-balance
twin HD's? Can you have a 20 and a 30 on the same controller card?



...any help would be appreciated. I'll even accept flames on this one...

Discalmer: Remember, there's still time to get in your responses to last
	   month's dumb query winner:


	"Is there some way to have remotes summon the system time and date
	 from the server using an OLD IBM PC Network, under release 1.0?"


...the Dumb Question of the week contest: brought to you by SNAFU. Snafu, we're
trying to put humor back into the computer industry by getting Bill Gates 
replaced by Bozo The Clown...
