Zenith Data Systems Z-386 SX/20 Free in NJ

Could I, yes, will I, no. It isn't my interview software. It is sent by the client (actually, two different ones, but they were once the same company, so they both use the same software/setups). The problem is, they are SUPER security concious. So for me to move it to a hard drive, I would have to edit the way they have it configured. They currently use a boot disk with DOS 3.2, which boots, and loads the interview program, then asks for the 2nd disk which contains the interview script and saves the data. Making the changes to run the whole thing off a HD is trivial, and I have done it in the past. The problem is, they consider doing any changes to their configuration to be a security violation, and when you violate their security, you get suspended as a work site for 2 weeks. So can I do it, yes, I just won't, because it isn't worth the risk of being caught, nor worth the effort to do it, since every job they send new disks, so every job I would have to repeat the conversion. Lots of effort and risk for no increase in usability. Besides, they already don't like me. They keep reusing the same DD 3.5" disks over and over. As a result, the shutters get bent, and I have had countless drives ruined because a bent shutter ripped the drive head off when removing the disk. So I have instructed all my staff to remove any shutters that even look suspect. So now the two companies hate me because they have to keep replacing the DD disks (which are slowly getting harder to find). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net>
