i fell the need to express my tremendous fondness of  Everex products.
everything they make is excellent. i've never had a problem with their
add on boards. again i've moved 1000+ everex cards and the failure rate is
negligible.  the docs are intelligent and thorough. the software is top rate.
the only thing i don't like about everex is that they use seagate drives.
a year ago, seagate had a %20 failure rate w/ 225 and 238 models. 4096s
dropped like flies. i worked for seagate and knew all the woes. they are better
now, but i would buy a Microscience in a minute.

by the way, if you need a good hard disk, mail order, competitive price..

try Rose Hill Systems in Scott's Valley California. across the street from 
seagate #15, these folks are classy. when i was there we built machines
(Everex) for SCO, Borland, and Seagate. when i left , we had sold well over
1000 microscience drives thru the mail, mostly in individual boxes; we got 3
back. 1-800-248-ROSE. included with every machine is QA Plus, and excellent
tech support, toll free. they advertise in computer shopper, and some other mags.


tell them tim reynolds sent you.

and say hi to shamous.
