Then I'd be running away screaming ;)

I can tell you though, that a new incarnation of the ata drivers wont
have support for the old st506 & ESDI controllers. Its simply too 
much junk to carry around. However we will still carry the old wd
driver that will support those antiques.  As for the bad144 code,
well, it has never solved my problems, just added some :)
