Oh no, not another hard disk question!! The only Mac supplier in this city is selling the General Computer FX 20 (the lunch-box) for $1300 (Canadian). I have two questions. 1.) Is this a fair price for a new 20 Meg HD? 2.) Is this a good drive? Any relevant information or anecdotes would be appreciated. Thanx for your time, Johan Larson.
