- Careful with the never WRT the Bernouli and HPFS, their drivers (currently in
- beta ) support both formats. The problem is the removability of the media
- without doing a shutdown under HPFS.

- This said ( and I own d90 Meg Bernouli transportable ) would be to go for the
- hard drive as you will get more Meg for the initial investment
