DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BUY A HYPERDRIVE!

That may seem a bit severe but you will be buying a product which
is highly failure prone from a company which has negative customer
support.  I have a long list of gripes with GCC, the most recent
occurred when I called to report a bug in their software and was
told that there was no bug and that I was wrong.  Needless to say
the error is reproducible and if the idiot at the other end of the
phone knew anything about the product he would have understood the
problem.  Anyway, stay away.
