 What's that? LAUGH?? I nearly didn't believe it until I removed my cd player from my PC and the CD came out in 000's of teeny weeny itty bits! So - of course - I searched the net to see what it was all about, AND .. .. .. .. There is quite a lot of interesting stuff. Some guys at college strapped a CD to a DREMEL drill and spun it up, needless to say the thing took off like a proverbial bat-- stuck in the ceiling WOW - could have had someone's eye out -so they say. I wondered if there was a club I could join now - having survived a CD blowing up. Perhaps one gets a medal ? Tell you what though, make's me think every time I spin one up in the drive. There was a warning about minute bits floating out and those getting in your eye. --------------- ANYWAY - 'nuff said. In case you are interested, it's going to become more common as spin speeds achieve 64X. The media has found it's limits - for now. SOLUTION : One web site suggested fitting multiple read heads to cut the speed. --------------- Well, over to you. I'm off for a pizza - home made - of course.
