   Can anyone tell me if I will have to wait long for a SCSI format
Magneto-Optical Disk (CD RAM drive). I know they exist for the NeXT
computer and have been demonstrated. They hold over 400MB and use
interchangeable disks. They are priced at about $2000 for that computer.
   I would like a mass-storage system, but I am holding off on buying a
hard drive because I don't expect the MODs to take long. Comments?
Predictions?
   Thank you for any information you may supply.
