32gig is the fastest, largest capacity 12.5mm HDD now available, AFAIK..
a year ago, there was talk that the follow on top capacity drive would be
43gig..
perhaps in a 17mm package, but now i doubt there will ever be another 17mm
drive..
so, for now, the 32gig is IT in more ways than one.. :-)

also, ibm provides some nice utilities, like a power utility and another
interesting one or two..

Cordially, :-)
