Well, the bills for all my Macworld splurges are rolling in (actually most
of them rolled in at once in the form of a whopping VISA bill) and it appears
I may have overspent myself a bit (does this sound like an understatement
to you :-) ).

Well, one of my more impulse buys was a MicroTech 44-meg removable
cartridge drive (for the mac, in case you are reading this on misc.forsale).
They had this great price $850 for the drive, and $70 per additional cartridge.
I bought one, and it has been everything I had hoped, but it's just more
than I should have spent for a whim.  Help me out.

The drive has a 2 year warranty (most resellers of this drive sell it with
a one year) and is in a very attractive  se-style zero-footprint low-profile
case. The drive includes both 25-50 and 50-50 pin scsi cables, as well as a 
terminator. the scsi address is externally set by pushbutton, and an init is
included that automounts cartridges when they are inserted.

I bought the drive plus 2 extra cartridges (for a total of 3 cartridges)
for  $989.00 + $49.45 tax.

The first  person to offer me what I paid (o.b.o. after a couple of weeks)
takes it.
