I have been trying for the past 3 months to order an 5.25 add-on drive for my PS/2 model 55 SX. Vendors have either told me they don't have any add-ons for the 55 SX or one vender sent me an add-on, but it wasn't for a 55 SX (it was for a model 50 Z). I eventually contacted our hardware support group, and they told me that the 55 SX can't support an add-on because of a bug in the system. They were not clear on the actual problem. Has anyone had any experience with trying to get an add-on for a model 55 SX? Also, does anyone know if there really is a bug in the model 55 SX which would cause this problem. Thanks, in advance! ********************** Paul Capista Bellcore (201) 699-8599 bcr!donuts0!pjc
