Just thought I'd mention that since I didn't want to risk having any
potential problems with CellQuest storing acquired data on the hard drive,
I do *not* have disk protection enabled on the Macs attached to the
cytometers.  I do have it enabled on the Powermac 7300 analysis workstation
(which is running OS 8.1).  Why yes, I *am* a coward! :)
