 You might trying IME Computers in Boston. Unfortunately I don't have the
number here but they advertise regularly in PC Week and Byte. I tried to
buy a Maxtor from them last year, and though they were out of stock of the
model I wanted and eventually determined they would not get any more, I
was pleased with the way they handled it - they were quite up front about
NOT having one in house and called me weekly to see if I was willing to
keep waiting.  I asked around and got several positive recommendations
from people who'd used them, and no horror stories. Last ad I saw they had
a 3.5" 96 Meg SCSI Maxtor for $299, new with 1 year warranty. I believe
they deal primarily with surplus stock and discontinued models.
