It may be no fuss, but you're gonna suffer bankruptcy this way! 340MB = $2995 (I can buy a 1.2GB and a 300MB drive for that!) 66OMB = $3995 (price of one NeXTstation!) 1.4GB = $5995!!! I can buy 3, count em, 3 1.2GB drives for this price! If you want to buy from NeXT, go ahead, but don't complain about pricing if you do! -k
