8/6     Does anyone know whether booting from a Windows PEBuilder CD accesses
        the hard drive of the machine you're booting in any way, if you don't
        tell it to?  -John
        \_ What is a PEBuilder?
           \_ obGoogle
        \_ Well, it'll access it to enumerate the drives, but it shouldn't
           write anything.  You can boot from a PEBuilder CD with no HDD.

           \_ Cool, thanks.  I need to consider it for a fairly specific
              purpose (run XP without leaving any local traces, but with a
              fully bootable "normal" XP installation on the HDD.)  By the way,
              if you're interested, look at Bart's PE Builder for a free
              alternative.  -John

4/11    Countrywide 12 month CD is 4.25%. But some people tell me they're
        going out of business. Is it actually safe to deposit into
        Countrywide right now? Will FDIC pay me the full amount + interest
        should it ever goes out of business?
        \_ Are you really that concerned about 4.25%? I could see if it
           was 7% or something. How much more is that than the next best
