I'm happy with the Miniscribe drives that we got. The price was great, the service has been fine, and they shipped the drives to the non-local folks, saving Karl a heap of trouble. All in all, we got a good deal! If we wait a year (or maybe 6 months), there will be a {bigger/smaller/ faster/slower/same} drive for less money. It never fails in this industry. It was the right drive, and the right time, at the right price for me. -- Dave Rand {pyramid|hoptoad|sun|vsi1}!daver!dlr Internet: dlr@daver.bungi.com
