Well, I never thought it would happen to me, but it apparently has... my Optical Disk appears to be failing. Can anyone tell me if the following error messages appear similar to the ones characteristic of the OD failures discussed previously on the list? Also, can the OD disk failure veterans let me know if NeXT stood behind their product, or did getting the OD problem resolved cost mucho dinero? Thanks for any suggestions/help....

NeXT was extremely helpful in replacing the drive. NeXT just asked me to bring it over to their Fremont factory. They swapped it for free while I waited. This was after their 90 day warranty had expired. Thanks for the great service NeXT. Joe Liemandt liemandt@lindy.stanford.edu Anyone using Sybase?
