YIPES! Is this true ???
It pisses me off if it is! I paid $700 for this damn thing!(q 105)
I'll be glad if SONY (and fujitsu for that matter) comes onto the
scene with MAC hard drives for end user to purchase!
Sheeit - it reminds me of the auto industry - GM, for et al vs Japaneese!
Maybe then $700 will buy something that will be reliable!

Not everything Japanese, not even from these vendors, is always good. A few years back I worked with three PC 6300 PLUS micros into which the dealer installed Fuji 20 MB drives. Each of the drives developed squeaking noises; one screeched so bad it had to be replaced. And I'm STILL working on Sony to get them to solve a high-res distortion problem with my over-expensive 1302.
