I'm a little uneasy about parts of the "Storage Devices" chapter, I 
have this cold, prickly feeling about it being out of date too.  (I 
don't think that UARTs have changed much.)  I agree that in its current 
form it should be moved out of the Handbook.

No objections from this corner, and I can't come up with anything better.

Cheers,

Bruce.
