   I have a Supra 20 Meg which has never failed me, but I'm getting a little
annoyed by the noise it makes.  Can anyone tell me which hard-drive out
there is the quietest?  Atari's Megafile, Supra's, ICD's, Astra's, etc. ???

   Also i'm thinking of purchasing either MS WRITE or Neocepts' WordUp.
I know that both uses GDOS, but is the output (on a dot-matrix) on one
better than the other.  I saw the output of WRITE (in graphics mode)
a long time ago, and it looked quite bad - overly bold and jaggies if
using large point-sizes.  Thanks in advance.
