    I would think the download would have a "read me" file to go along with it. Most do.

    No read-me but looking into one of the setup info files, there's this string...
    DeviceDesc = "Memory Card"
    Panasonic.DeviceDesc ="Ricoh SD Bus Host Adapter"
    SdClassName ="Ricoh SD Controller"

    I suspect this driver *might* be a factory-installed SD card reader in the later Mark models. Not sure really and it isn't a big issue. Just curious.

    No experience with this 73 but should be good enough for the kid to lug it off to college next year. Thanks anyway.
