Has anyone bought one of those LaCie/CIRRUS disk drives?  The prices and
specs look good:

30mb	40ms	$549
42MB	25ms	$649
70MB	25ms	$799
80MB	12ms	$999
100MB	25ms	$999
140MB	15ms	$1299

The strange thing about their add is they ask you to compare the features,
and give a huge list of things which you really don't care about
when you're buying *hardware*.  They include a bunch of software like
SilverSurfer, which they include as a feature of their Cirrus drives.
Going down the list, it looks like they forgot to include a SCSI
cable???
