[aclug-L] Maxtor 10GB HDD requires Win95??

["Brian J. Chapman" <bchapman@xxxxxxxxx>]

I saw a 10GB hard drive at CompUSA for only $200! (after rebate) but it
says it requires Windows 95!!?? Does this mean there are drivers for it
that only run under 95 or is Maxtor just trying to tell people that they
can't use it with MS-DOS and Windows 3.x (because of its size, maybe a
FAT16 thing)?

I'd love to get it, but not if it's the HDD version of a WinModem :P

Anyone know what the deal is?
