Has anyone out there found this disk anywhere for a price near $370? I poked around and finally found some cheap ones advertised in the back of PC Week. Best price of the batch was $429, though several were within a few bucks of that. That's not quite the $370 that Byte quotes, but it is a tad better than what you've found. BTW, I think the place mine came from was Atronic or something like that in City of Industry, CA. Never heard of 'em before; they were just the cheapest I found. They shipped the disk in a reasonable time. Other than that, I know nothing about them. -- Karl Swartz |UUCP {emoryu1,pacbell,decvax!formtek}!ditka!kls 1-412/937-4930 office | {pitt,psuvax1}!idis!formtek!ditka!kls |BIX kswartz "I never let my schooling get in the way of my education."
