Jim, I'll tell you one of the costs that you may not be thinking of… the cost of supreme irritation of anyone beyond the "What's a disk" stage. I always thought the Mac's insistence on knowing best when to eject the disk was not only typical Apple arrogance, but just plain stupidity. Do you know any Mac owners that don't have a handy paper clip to eject the disk in the cases where the machine doesn't? The user must take _some_ responsibility. I have little patience for those that overestimate their own ability to the degree that they feel they don't need to read the docs. I have less patience with those that make the same mistake over and over again. Regards, Larry.
