We use the Intel Buble board here, not for speed (not bad) but because we need NON-VOLITILE storage that won't get destroyed if the machines are wheeled around while on. (We would DESTROY fixed disk very quickly!) They seem very reliable, they CAN be booted from with a patch to the OS, and they are transparant to the system. They look just like another drive. We've benn having a boot problem with new AT's with 3.1, but all that hapens it the user has to hit the F1 key to get by a message that the RAM isn't correct, the board still works. We're trying to work that little bug out now. Are they worth it? For our application, YES. As a replacement for RAM or a HD unit? (At over $1000 a pop for 1/2 meg?) It's up to you!
