I've been thinking of what hard disk to put into my pc532. Of course, I dream about large disks, but economic considerations mean otherwise. I was thinking of disks <= 100 Mb to start. I can always add more disks later. Perhaps someone could recommend reliable distributors with good prices. Would any consider some sort of discount if we ended up buying drives of different capacities? -- Craig Ruff NCAR cruff@ncar.ucar.edu (303) 497-1211 P.O. Box 3000 Boulder, CO 80307
