My purchasing department here at Bellcore has me in a bind.  I had a
verbal commitment from Dirt Cheap Drives (Texas) to sell a new Priam 519
for $999 (almost three weeks ago).  My boss approved the purchase,
the acquisition agent approved the purchase, but the purchasing agent
tried to find a better deal and now (apparently) Dirt Cheap Drives no
longer has any >100mb ST506 drives in stock.  I need another vendor with
drives in stock!

Sigh ;-(

Without any luck yet, I'm trying vendor after vendor in Computer Shopper.
If someone out there has recently bought a LARGE drive that will fit my
(suitably modified) 3b1, please email any information regarding your purchase,
and I'll summarize the results of my search to the net.

I have the full height monitor base, etc. so I'm game for any ST506 drive
that will format to >100mb.

Thanks, everyone!
