I really don't know.  It is the only machine I use at work, so I don't turn
it off and plug it into anything else.  I actually took the cradle home to
try hooking it to my home network and will probably get around to that this
coming week (after today I'm off until 5 Jan.) when I get a lot of things
done on the home network.  The home network is all Mac or Linux, so I'll try
to remember (failing memory sucks) when I try it to report the results.  It
*should* work, though, since it should be treated as a USB external hard
drive.

One small note.  I'm running WinXP here to meet the network requirements.  I
have Outhouse set up to spell check everything before it goes out.  You will
note that in the quoted stuff I use the term WinXP.  When Outhouse spell
checks this it doesn't find a match.  The alternative offered?  "Wimp"!  Now
ain't that poetical justice?
