Here is some info on the Magneto-Optical drive from a friend of mine on the
inside:
	o Access time is slow. About 95ms. Ungnh!!
	o At the present time, the NeXT's drive shuts the computer off when 
	  the disk is removed. Hopefully this will be fixed Real Soon Now.

I will forward anything else I hear from my friend.

BTW Atari should have something even more interesting at Comdex. For real 
shipping this time.

VFTD!!
