RE: PCMCIA CD-ROM
Tim,
I've tested the Panasonic CD-ROM out and I think it's excellent. It is a two
step installation, as opposed to the numerous steps involved with
configuring the SCSI PCMCIA card and the NEC 3xp cd-rom's that we've used in
the past. I see absolutely no difference between the Panasonic double speed
and the NEC triple speeds performance ?? On a scale of 1 to 10, I would
rate this thing a 9 (so far). The only reason that I wouldn't give it a 10
is because it's only a double speed. It's much more cost effective than the
TP 755CD's. About a $2000.00 savings if you go with a TP 755CE and the
Panasonic CD-ROM.
Thanks, Kev
