I have read the entire thread. Thanks for the insult, but my comment is still factually correct. And it's holier-than-thou if you want to spell it correctly. MacDrive cannot work, but MacDrive-like functionality is another matter. That can be made to work with enough development effort. The question was about MacDrive itself and that's what I was addressing. And I answered exactly that question, didn't I? In case I wasn't clear, MacDrive works fine now in XP under bootcamp (but not under bootcamp in Parallels which is a subject of some apparent confusion all over the forums) And that was enough. They fixed the problem and it works now. It's still a subject worthy of dropping (at least here), IMO anyway.
