Not only that, but much to my dismay, the DriveWare stuff recognizes the
difference between new and old Jasmine drives, and only works on the newer
ones.

Having just bought a Jasmine with the DriveWare, I went to update and
reformat my older Jasmine with it as well, since I want both machines to be
clones of each other as far as the basic system is converned. Much to my
dismay, DriveWare won't talk to it. So I'm forced to run two different
versions of the drivers and support software, even though they're both
Jasmines.

It's the first thing Jasmine has ever done to make me not happy with them.
Like foo. It's not a major problem, by any means, but a hassle and an
inconvenience. A Jasmine is a Jasmine is a Jasmine. Except when it's an old
one. Not nice, Jasmine.
