[comp.sys.nsc.32k] Disk & Memory Buy?

Disks --
I won't have time in the near future to organize a disk buy.  I saw a note
saying that someone else might be able to do so.  I did look into 3.5" SCSI
drives, though.  The best deal seems to be on the Quantum ProDrive 105s (105
MB).  I've been told that you'll probably need 150 MB to do serious
development on the PC532.  So, you'd need 2 of the Quantums.

I do have a copy of the Quantum product manual for the 105s.  I'll ask Quantum
about making some copies if anyone needs one.

About the best price for the Quantum is from ClubMac, a mail-order Macintosh
add-on company.  They have the Quantum 105 for $339, including brackets and
software to mount it in a Mac.  Perhaps you can use the software for another
disk sometime...  

Club Mac Phone Numbers

I know people who have ordered from ClubMac.  I don't know any horror stories
about them.

If you are looking for a larger drive, I did see a flyer from CSC for
refurbished drives.  Sorry; I don't have any more CSC info near me.

Memory -- 
I won't have time to do much in the memory area either.  I could get some for
someone who can't find it otherwise.  I expect that 4-meg SIMM prices will
come down a little in April.  It's not likely that 1-megs will.
