I suppose you have to download it to the machine, or you have to start receiving your software on flash media. At this point, do software providers have their software generally available for such an installation? And many people use their laptops for viewing DVDs or listening to CDs. So, you have to carry an external optical drive with you? Or do you carry a portable DVD player and an iPod or other digital music player when you travel? -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
