Hi,
 There has to be a problem with there engine. While looking what
RamFast+CDrom that would be compatable with RamFast a search with
Google brought up 65 hits. That I would say is specific enough.
 BUT I was only able to bring up 30 of them, before then hitting the
wall of "Your search has no results" or whatever it says. Very
strange.

 Alot of the times that people search is they do not know what they
will find. To limit it, limits us to what is out there.

Take Care,
