Since we made the decision for the Amiga, I've been reading this newsgroup and have seen more than a few comlaints about drive problems. They seem to occur very quickly. Within a few months of owning the machine, people comlpain that the drive needs repairing, I also seem to notice that the repairs haven't seemed to be accomplishing much. Can anyone comment on this? I like the Amiga a lot, and for lack of resources will get the 500 as opposed to the 2000, but I am becoming a bit wary... jess koeppel@porthos.rutgers.edu
