I was just trying to point out that IDE flash drives exist.  Here's
somebody selling a 32MB one for $73:

    http://www.c-source.com/csource/newsite/itechnote.asp?part_no=006090

Search PriceWatch or your favorite shopping site for "flashdrive" or
"ide flash"...  Google comes up with some interesting links too.

If you can boot off USB, this would be kinda cool too:

    http://www.thumbdrive.com/

(http://www.esbuy.com/usbpocketdrive.html has a 16MB version for $40.)

For that matter, you could always do a USB compact flash reader if you
can boot off USB...
