BoingBoss,
There's no call for that mate, I know Jope said something which upset you, but there's no need to respond in this way. It just creates more bad feeling here which I'm sure you agree we don't need.
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and will respectfully ask if you'd kindly explain why it's a bad move to site a 2.5" HDD as per the picture. It does have the advantage of allowing you to retain the internal FDD, so why would you not recommend it?
I will ALWAYS love the Amiga and Atari ST computers and I will continue to offer my advice and vast amount of computer knowledge to those who are wise enough to listen.
No-one doubts your dedication to the cause dude, but I don't think that telling people they're stupid is going to win you many friends. I've disagreed with people on this site over many things, but it doesn't mean they're dumb. If you big yourself up and make an error - as we all do from time to time - then you set yourself up for a fall.
I'm not suggesting here you've got it wrong, which is why I'm asking you for your opinion based on your experience.
