Deborah,
	This has been my expeirence as well.  Jasmine can deliver nothing
	but empty promises and bum drives.  I have put my Jasmine to good
	use,  it's holding up one side of a busted chair.  Jasmine refuses
	to fix it,  and they won't give me my money back.  Their
	explaination is that whenever they get the drive in for testing,  it
	works fine.  When I have gotten it back,  it refuses to work.  I
	have tried it an all 3 of my Macs,  a Mac Plus,  a brand new SE,
	and an old 512K with a SCSI port.  So much for Jasmine....
