If you do a simple comparison of prices (as of a few days ago) on
Apple consortium prices, you find that the internal 80M disk is
$1600 (after discount).  I have seen 105M disks (Quantum) for $800
in the latest MacUser.  However jacked up the barebones price is, it
still doesn't make it a good deal to buy Apple, obviously, f**ked 
up drives.  - Yossie

P.s. I haven't looked lately, but it seems that Apple 40M drives and
Apple memory is also way overpriced - the price being the difference
between the machine with and without.
