Dell Apes Gillette

Got this nice stock Creative 52x CD-ROM pulled from an old retired PC.
It was purchased from Compusa about 18 months ago. Wanted to install
it in new Dell 2400. Damn them, the flange on the front of the tray
reduces the opening by a couple of millimeters preventing entry - or
proper alignment. Buy the razor and they sell you blades eternally.
It's not terribly important...but I'll remember.

Keep trying. It's a tight fit, but it does fit.
