As an aside, I have had LOTS of those errors when downloading. I've used an older 233mHz laptop which has been dandy for prontos, Sonance K2s, RTIs, Xantechs, and so on...but suddenly with the 700 and 850 in my arsenal, all these errors.

I endured for quite a long time and pulled the battery several times on some projects. Was even considering building a little gizmo to fit between two batteries with a little momentary push switch so I could do a quick reset.

I found some memory on ebay and upped the ram from 64m (typical for this age laptop) to 128m and problem has gone away.

Now if I could just get it to do the MX-3000 without errors. I suspect it's more memory intensive yet.
