Chris,

  Chinon drives are not as bad as you make them out to be.  My roommate's
Mega has been performing flawlessly since August, and it has a Chinon
DD/DS drive built in.  Prior to that he had a 520ST with an external drive
and that also had a Chinon mech.  I know many people back home (in 
Connecticut) who have Chinon drives who have never had problems with them.
I think you're blowing things a bit out of proportion.

  That's not to say I don't think Sony drive mechs aren't better.
