Hello!
I am currently running a Toshiba Sattellite Pro 4300 series laptop =
computer; PIII 700, 196MB Ram, 12GB harddrive, DVD rom..=20
I'm wondering how much hacking ill have to do to get USB to work under =
freebsd?  I just bought an iomega CDRW drive and want to make sure itll =
function under this OS before i go ahead and d/l and install.  ill be =
using 4.0 -STABLE for the install, just wanted to check up on config to =
ensure minimal hassles.  i've run redhat, slackware and HP-UX on various =
machines in the past, but this would be a first time to BSD: mostly for =
security purposes.  Please reply with USB support details: particularly =
with the zip.. I saw nothign on it in the docs end of the site, though =
you have parrallel and SCSI support for iomega drives...

Thanks for your time!
Erik Swanson
