Message-ID:Date: 29 Sep 89 11:29:59 GMT Organization: Guest, Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA Lines: 12 The current issue of MacWeek claims the 40 and 80 Mb HD "problem" will be corrected by a chip replacment that gives more torque on startup and an occasional exercise or two to relieve the stickon "problem" that is caused by high humidity. Sounds like a patch to a real problem to me! ________________________________________________________________________ Rich Clemens Associate Professor, WV Wesleyan College Phone: 304-473-8000 office Bitnet: os360160@wvnvms.wvnet.edu 304-472-3029 home rc10+@andrew.cmu.edu TCP/IP: [44.058.000.003] Packet: KB8AOB @ KA8ZXP ________________________________________________________________________
