    Is the 31 second rule defined for the PC or for IDE?

    This would explain why my Amiga doesn't identify my Conner CP30540A after a

    follow the `31 second rule'...

    In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
    when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
