Rats! Got around to starting up the DS20. Found out it has a RRD47, another CD
drive.
Does anyone know if any Alphas came with DVD drives? Did ant itanics come with
CD drives?
Boss says I'm getting an itanic, RX2660 or something like that. He doesn't
listen when I say I don't want an itanic. Now I'm going to have to learn how to
run the damn thing. Maybe it will have a DVD drive.
