My sister has a beemer convertible so i can't be a racist if I have black friends, it's quite old now - I think it's a 323 with some M kit on it. She loves it.
I thought it was OK but nothing special. Of course, it's not a fire-breathing monster, so I wasn't expecting to be super-wowed. |

Hm, they do both refuse to talk to my DNS-323 properly - in Vista and XP it was \\nas, but Win7 insists it's \\dns-323 and while it'll show the top-level folders they're all empty. Yet \\ipaddress is fine.
So maybe it's trying to catalogue LAN connections or something before logging in. |
