Message-ID: Date: 29 Jun 90 12:31:30 GMT Sender: news@daver.bungi.com Lines: 17 Approved: news@daver.bungi.com Well, now that the pc532 parts kits are headed all over the world from the NorthEast... (BIG round of applause for Steve) Has anyone given thought to the idea of a group buy on hard disks. I was thinking about a Micropolis (1570, I think) 5.25" half height 340MB SCSI drive. That way I can put it inside either my Mac or my pc532... A quote for a SINGLE drive from a local distributor was about $1300, but I think that 20 or 30 would bring the price down quite a bit. There was a 720MB full height drive that was quoted at about $2110, too. Anyway I am open to suggestions on what people would like and if there is demand for this. I have also thought some people from comp.sys.mac might want to get in on this for their Mac II's (but then we are restricted to 5 inch half height or 3.25" drives (if we want to include the IIc? and SE* people). So, what do you think??? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Buller jonb@vector.dallas.tx.us ..!texbell!vector!jonb FROM Fortune IMPORT Quote; FROM Lawyers IMPORT Disclaimer;
