- It is very nice......but not threaded. I got it looking at a CD-ROM and it
- took 2 minutes to scan all the directories and files on the disk and the WPS
- was not usable for anything else until it had completed the scan. For most
- hard disks, this not a problem......it lasts about 5-10 seconds. But that CD
- sure tied up the interface.
-
- The guys standing behind me yelled: "Ported Windows app!" when they saw
- that......
