yep its the best software around... but it needs improving.

i found it to be very unstable on both my PC's (windows XP) when i used it on my MO USB LCD a few weeks ago.

Not had it crash on me yet I admit last time I used it , I got the occasional crash

don't suppose it would fit 3 1/2 drive bay????

Can you get a cable to connect it to the internal USB headers..?
this would save having to run the cable out the box

Nope.

Acid yes MO can supply one

I dont suppose there will be a black alu version of this coming out at the same time?
Might be interested in one, just to add some useless but cool gadgit to my case

Look in first post

I'm still waiting for someone to come out with an LCD which is more than 4 lines... I don't mind an unit using up two of my 5.25" bays in my Lian Li.

It's a shame you can't get nice LCD's to fit 3 1/2 bays, 'cos everybody's got at least 1 free bay....
