The Bernoulli Box uses X Meg removable cartridges. Thus, a 20+20 is a BB with two 20Meg cartridge drives. The cartridges have the same or faster access time than most hard disks. 20Meg cartridges costs about $50 each (but hell, it's 20Meg!). Systems range from 5Meg drives to 20Meg drives and NO, you cannot put 20Meg cartridges in 5Meg drives. The highest-end Bernoulli Box so far is one with an 80Meg Hard Drive and two 20Meg cartridge drives (however, this may not be available for the MAC). -Matt
