bushnel@ucscb.UCSC.EDU  (Bill Bushnell) asks about MicroNet and CMS drives.
I buy a fair number of disks, and I wouldn't buy from anyone else. Charles
McConnathy, the president of MicroNet, is a very savvy guy who does an
extremely good job. He was responsible for CMS's capturing a large part of
the Mac drive market by building a good solid product at a great price. Now
that he has left CMS and started MicroNet, I expect even better things.

Buy CMS if you want to be sure that they will be around to serve you. They
are a huge company with good service.

Buy micronet if you want the best service. They are a smaller company, and
anything could happen to them. On the other hand, I'm betting they'll be around
for a long time. They are the first company with wren IVs for the mac and the
first with 150mb tape drives (and at a price that competes with some people's
40 mb tapes!).

Either way, you can't go wrong.
