Check this month's edition of MacUser. There are some incredible buys on Seagate-based macintosh hard drives (like $499 for a 60 or 80Mb 5" internal drives). Now that the IIcx has be introduced, I would expect a firesale on 5" internal drives. I can't imagine why anyone would be buying IIx's or II's right now. Remember: Seagate stuff works, but is not known as being of the highest quality, especially for high-density drives. Don Gillies, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Illinois 1304 W.
