I just saw this posting on comp.sys.mac.misc (no flames please, I was just interested in what they had to say...) And saw this incredible price for hard disks. I have no affiliation with the company and have never bought one, blah blah blah. caveat emptor blah blah blah but: :Path: arizona!noao!ncar!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!swrinde!cs.utexas.edu!uunet!bu.edu!sol!ardai >From: ardai@sol.bu.edu (Michael Ardai) :Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.misc :Subject: Re: 170Meg Wren Hard Drive for sale (SCSI) :Message-ID: <65029@bu.edu.bu.edu> :Date: 26 Sep 90 02:40:16 GMT :References: <29737@netnews.upenn.edu> <1990Sep18.211525.14186@news.iastate.edu> <1990Sep18.230914.4427@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu> <2688@crdos1.crd.ge.COM> :Sender: news@bu.edu.bu.edu :Organization: Boston University :Lines: 10 : :In article <2688@crdos1.crd.ge.COM> davidsen@crdos1.crd.ge.com (bill davidsen) writes: :-In article <1990Sep18.230914.4427@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu> cmm1@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu (Christopher M Mauritz) writes: :- How about Maxtor XT-3280s for $800?
