I'm hoping I'll be able to use EasyCD Creator to do bit by bit backups of
some of the CDs so I'll let you know how I get on, assuming my burner is
behaving itself - it has a habit of going offline and the only thing that
brings it back is a power cycle which takes bloody ages on this machine
since it's all UltraSCSI. Having said that it doesn't take as long as a
Compaq Proliant ML370 :)

Yep. You needed a VXT with a minimum of 10mb RAM from what I remember, which
is why I never played with it as all our VXTs had 4mb. I wish I'd saved more
of them now but I only had room for 1 :(

> You have a fine collection of goodies there!

Thank my ex-ex-company for binning the whole lot when it suddenly became
'legacy' and they started chasing the M$oft dangling carrot!

cheers
