Michael, it's simply not a convenience issue for some people. There are those,
who will make do, with what they have for as long as possible -- and as long as
cheap SCSI drives are obtainable, and his SCSI card doesn't flake out, there
simply is no impetus to replace it with something newer. The whole CF vs. USB
is a red herring, and a flimsy one at that if the convenience factor comes down
to deciding if a $5 card reader makes a difference or not.

You're wasting your logic.

Thanks, Sean.  ;-)

I usually try to throw a little logic at the wall to see if it will
stick...but I don't like wasting it.  ;-)
