What experiences / info / advice do people have to offer on the various suppliers of 5 1/4" read / write / erasable optical disks (which store about 300 MB per side)? We have several possible suppliers, but are unsure about exactly what questions to ask because no one around here has used such a beast before. For example, how important is compatibility with the ISO standard that apparently exists for these? Do the Ricoh and Sony drives actually interchange data ok? Please send replies direct to me and I'll summarize and post a summary if anyone is interested. If this is a repeat question, sorry, can you point me to where it is answered? cheers, mike Michael Mee, _--_|: Postgrad, Space Studies Dept / : "Proudly Australian University of North Dakota :_.--._/ ... stranded in ND" (701) 777-3460 v ud180547@vm1.nodak.edu *or* mee@plains.nodak.edu
