Message-ID: <781@metapsy.UUCP> Date: 11 Jul 89 06:28:58 GMT Reply-To: sarge@metapsy.UUCP (Sarge Gerbode) Organization: Metapsychology, Woodside, CA Lines: 17 I haven't been following this newsgroup, so please excuse a question that must have been asked many times before, but that I am curious about. Does anyone know whether optical drives (the readable and writable kind used with the NeXt computer) are yet generally available in a form that can be interfaced to a different sort of computer. If so, I'd appreciate some brand names and/or places near Palo Alto where such a beast might be found. Please reply by email, since I suspect this question has been answered many times. -- Sarge Gerbode -- UUCP: pyramid!thirdi!metapsy!sarge Institute for Research in Metapsychology 950 Guinda St. Palo Alto, CA 94301
