Just a little humorous realization I made this afternoon:

My client (I do contract s/w work) owns several (~50) PC's with Seagate drives
in them.  We've all heard the horror stories about locked-up Seagates...

Anyway, this guys say that it happens all the time, but it wouldn't prevent
him from buying Seagate again.  "Other than that," he says, "they're fine."

---------  OTHER THAN THAT?!?!?!?!?!

"Oh yes,"  he responded, "You just have to pop the case open and give it a
little spin.  Thay start right back up!"

I now know why IBM owners buy 10 year old technology after all...

Sheesh!
