I am sick and tired of all this waiting or the APEX drive from Pinnacle... They 
started advertising the drive back in August 1995, and were supposed to ship it 
in November 1995. Now, the latest news is that they are aiming at early MAY !!!! 
TALK ABOUT VAPORWARE !!!


So i am looking for something else, in the 1.3Gig range... I am setting my eyes 
on either the IBM or the NEC... However, i called several places, and i was told 
that the IBM model was obsolete and deffective!!!!

Anyone knows what the deal is? I have seen the IBM drive at really good prices 
($699), and that might be why... Too good to be true.


Laurent.

Thanks,
Laurent.
