I have the corder version of the Megahertz (CC3288) and it does not
interfere with my SCSI card (for the external CD ROM). I have a
TP701Cs and can in fact close the little pop-out door with the hole
in it, the connectors come through nicely.

"We have come to this town where lives the cream of American
art. And just imagine, I a Premier, a Soviet representative,
when I came here to this city, I was given a plan -- a
program of what I was to be shown and whom I was to meet here.
"But just now I was told that I could not go to Disneyland. I
asked: 'Why not?' What is it, do you have rocket-launching
pads there? I do not know.
"And just listen -- just listen to what I was told -- to what
reason I was told. We, which means the American authorities,
cannot guarantee your security if you go there.
"What is it? Is there an epidemic of cholera there or
something? Or have gangsters taken over the place that can
destroy me? Then what must I do? Commit suicide? This is the
situation I am in -- your guest. For me the situation is
inconceivable. I cannot find words to explain this to my
people."
-- A 1959 speech by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev after
he wanted to go to Disneyland but was denied permission
because security officials could not guarantee his safety.
