The 'older' IOMEGA drivers (ie device=rcd.sys) Don't seem to be able to
handle BUS speeds greater than 8 Mhz. If you call up IOMEGA and complain
they can send you out a new device driver that *theoretically* fixes
the problem. It is also available on their BBS. While I like the idea
of removable mass storage devices, I am hesitant to get a Bernoulli box
because the Bernoulli's that I have used are prone to all sorts of strange
errors, and IOMEGA is 'slower than molasses in January' at coming out with
device drivers for other operating systems. (read UNIX, who cares about
OS/2?) I have been looking at some of the new floptical drives out there,
and if the price ever drops into the realm of reasonableness...
