	(I don't know if the original posting made it to the
	net.  If this is a reposting, please send replies
	directly to me.)

	Despite my previous flames about Apple Computer, the Company,
	I am buying an Apple Computer ][e to replace my aging
	][.  With the low price of ][e's (<$700), I will stick
	with my software library another year or so waiting
	for the real Mac (color, etc.).

	In the meantime, I want some disk storage. I mean 140k
	is a drag, and with Prodos heirarchial directories almost
	totally inadequate.

	Your help is solicited. I want a high-density ( :=) drive,300k or more.
	I know of the Rana drives.  Has anyone heard of anything else?
	Please also tell me if the drive will read/write standard disks
	(so I can share data with friends) and how easy it was to install
	the drives under Prodos (if you have it).

	Thanks.
