- Please, oh net.gurus, I seek your advice...
-
- If the stars are just right, and I talk smoothly enough, there's a chance
- that when I buy a new PC system I might be able to stretch the budget to
- include an external CD-ROM.
-
- What I was hoping was if I selected the right type I just may be able to
- bring it home on the weekends, connect it up to my A590 and er... ahem...
- do some company work in my own time... nudge, nudge, ;-) ;-).
-
- Please excuse my ignorance, but are the external CD's compatible between
- amigas and pc's? How about the discs themselves? If some CD's are
- compatible and some not, how can I tell which are the type to buy?
-
- Thank you for your advice, I'm off to practise bowing, scraping, grovelling
- and general fawning behaviours...
