Driveway

CNET rating:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 best

The good: Opens online files from any Office 97 or 2000 app; easy-to-use interface shows the contents of all folders on the first page. 
The bad: Starts you out with just 25MB of space; doesn't work with non-Office 2000 software. 
The bottom line: Driveway's super, but only if you use Office 2000. If not, you're better off with X:drive or netdrive. 


CNET Review
(7/5/00)
By Gregg Keizer 

If you're a heavy-duty Office user, Driveway is the online drive for you. Using Windows' Web Folder feature, this storage site offers easy access to online files from within any Office 97 or 2000 application. If you don't use Office, however, you're out of luck. Driveway's far too limited for everyone else--try either X:drive or netdrive instead.
