Does anybody know about such low-priced beasts? Several people (including me) have bought Fujitsu 2263SA's from Fast Access in Elmhurst, Ill. I get the impression that it's a really small outfit with low overhead, so they can sell disks with just a small markup. Current price on a 2263SA (770 MB unformatted, ~660 MB formatted) is $1,413. Shipping is about $15. You want to talk to Mal Steadman.
