          I thought  I'd  pass on  some news I just  heard.  Third  Coast
    Technologies have launched a read/write optical disk that stores 900M
    per disk ! for 'only' #4950 sterling. Apparently they have only a few
    in the UK at the moment, but then at that price I don't think they'll
    be selling like hot-cakes. Still it's an important product for the ST
    and should open up vertical markets that require mass storage.

                                     Padraig.
