Just wondering, why is there a 1000$ difference between a 100mb with 5 megs
and a 50mb with 2 megs? Isn't that a bit ridiculous?

I was told by a friend (who also deals in IBM's) that he would sell me a 100
meg SCSI for around 300$ new. (around 300-400$ range). He said for the
500-600$ range I could go for a 300 meg. It seems that ram is selling for
about 75$ a meg now and 3 megs should be about 235$. So we are talking about
500$ for 3 megs and a 100 meg drive. They seem to be charging that for a
50 mb difference and 3 meg ram??? Sounds like I would order the system without
a hard drive (if available) and buy my own somewhere else..
