Well, in case you haven't taken English 101, a contradiction is when is when arguments run contrary or there is some discrepancy or incosistency. There was none. In the first section you dissected, I mentioned the A590's used to use old Epson st-506 20 meg drives. But according to a magazine review (I believe it was INFO mag), they are now using 20 mg 80ms Western Digital SCSI drives. In the second section, I recapped buy saying that the A590 is a 20 meg 80 ms. SCSI drive. Where is the contradiction there? When comparing the Trump to the A590 at the end, I'm not going to compare it to the old ST-506's since it wouldn't be fair. You have to compare it to the system as it is being sold now, improved with a SCSI drive. Lastly, since you have deigned to inform us you have the old ST-506 drive, then you have the older model. My condolences. Also, I'd like to point out that we still don't know what you paid for your A590 and that's put me at a disadvantage since you know what I paid for my system. Please humor us little people with a dollap more of your wisdom and tell us what you paid, oh master. Your humble servant, Jason and Yes, the above message was meant to be sarcastic and condescending as possible. Please dissect away and respond so we can see how much more intelligent you are. Of course we all know its against your character to dissect out of context to reveal how much more intelligent your responses are than us mere mortals who do not take sentences out of context.
