Sick and tired from waiting for Pinnacle Micro to ship its new drive, or the 
industry to come up with the newer 2.6GB drives, i am going to settle for a 
1.3GB...

I have seen the NEC as low as US$999, and the IBM at US$735.

Question1: Is the NEC worth the extra bucks?
Question2: Any other sub US$1,000 drive to consider?
Question3: Any better price around?


Thanks,
Laurent.
