I used to have 2 of them, 1 would do it from within memory and the other one 
wouldn't. the one that wouldn't though, which is the one I still have, has a 
problem with the CPU and doesn't do a couple things it used to do though so 
I don't go off that one anymore, I go off what I remember from the one I 
sold.
