Hi everyone. I have been reading here and there about IBMs new read write optical disk
drive. I was wondering if it is actually being sold, what the retail and street prices
are, what the media costs, what interfaces it uses(e.g., scsi esdi etc.). and success or
problems with it. It just came out I believe, its a 122-155 meg magneto-optical drive that
can also read read only disks.

Thanks
