Dont worry about BOG, he got kicked out of the biggest sheltered
workshop in the country, and it should be obvious why that happened.

Good luck in getting Microsoft to write anymore drivers for XP.

If the hard drive manufacturers want to sell their drives to the huge
XP user base, then I would think that they would write the drivers
themselves.
I believe that WD provides a sector "alignment" utility to optimise
their 4KB sectored drives for use with XP.

If there is a good money making base of XP users, you better believe
after market guys will fill the need.

Not necessary, the first generation of such drives will have a built-
in translator mode. By the time these manufacturers are ready to
remove the translator mode (if ever), then XP will be a long-dead
operating system.

Do they already exist?

Yes.

It's not "obvious" to most of us who live outside of Australia, though.
So, Rod...what's the story?

Okay, I did a bit of Wikipedia research, on the term "sheltered workshop."
Now, I just want to know, whether Barry O'Grady got the "bums rush" because:
He's handicapped (is he?).
He's a member of an "ethnic minority" (Irish).
The latter possiblility seems rather implausible -- as in Australia (and in
every other English-speaking country), the Irish are a huge "minority" and
hardly an underprivileged one, these days.

Well, I just had a glance at his Web page (which, apparently, hasn't been updated
since December 3, 2006); he's a rabid atheist, obviously.

I'm thinkin' that there's lots o' Irish (descendents), in Australia, though.
They're the USA's second largest ethnic group, behind the Germans (and ahead
of the third-place English, surprisingly enough).

Hmmm, could such traumatization be the reason Barry O'Grady is so atheistic,
as an adult?

Perhaps, but...I'd bet that Folkert Rienstra is far worse. Do you believe
Folksy would be allowed to even >visit< Oz, without his keeper?

Its possible, but I'm a heathen myself, and that isnt the reason I am.

He's still around, mostly posting about what he claims is the global warming scam.
OK, you can have a gold star on the back of your hand if you keep that up.
