Sun now sells a CD-ROM for ~$1000. (less any discount you can get from your sales critter.) I've played with them and they are pretty damn fun since they can also play audio CD's and there is a neat hack that lets you run the CD player "front end" on your workstation. The question is, is there a market for these things on the Amiga? They have a scsi connector and talk SCSI, the Sun CD's are in High Sierra format (as are most I understand). The question is, if there was an Amiga driver for this guy would you consider buying one? -- --Chuck McManis Sun Microsystems uucp: {anywhere}!sun!cmcmanis BIX: Internet: cmcmanis@Eng.Sun.COM These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
