I neglected to point out to the comp.sys.mac readers, who probably aren't at
all familiar with the history of Amiga hard disks, that the numbers I posted
were VERY old, from one of the first hard disks available.  I agree 100%
that these numbers should not be used to make comparisons between the two
machines.  The Amiga situation has improved considerably!  Sorry about any
confusion...
