What is the current feeling and experience about erasable optical ? It seems that Sony has the most market visibility. What are people's experience with it, particularly on MVAX/Ultrix and SUN ? Is it solid, reliable, not too slow ? Other comments positive and negative ? Thanks. Please email responses. Cheers, Dan Ts'o 212-570-7671 Dept.

At $100 for 800Mb, its pretty good. Cheap, too (< $3500).
