        Thank you for the information.
        I will give it some thought and see if I can come up
        with something that will fit both bills...

        The problem is that the disks that I have are
        very wide-spread, I would imagine. Compaq is shipping
        them in their newer machines, so some compromise has
        to be arrived at.
        
        I will look into the matter further.
        Thanks again.

        cheers,
