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 Get it straight: I didn't post the gluck about buying from NeXT. I agree, you are paying an arm and a leg (please don't pull mine) for HD from NeXT. I posted the query for info on third party disks. get it straight ! sorry to the rest of the net for this type of shi* -- =========================================================== ********************* * * * You're * * * * In A * * * * Box ! * * * * @1990 * ********************* |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| | Thomas H.
