     If you are referring to me, I request you go back AND READ MY MESSAGE!

     If you have a machine with 32+ MB ram, then you will get faster disk
caching by setting your puter type to "Network Server".  Unfortunately, idiot
Microsoft set the caching patterns for Network Server to match "Desktop
Computer"!
     I said NOTHING  about Smartdrv.  I am talking about fixing a massive bug
in the INTERNAL DISK CACHING SYSTEM.
