Dear Sir,

        I purchased a Taurus 4221W at 11th Ang, 95. Unfortunately, the
HD 'died' at about 23th Oct, 95... with just a two months of life...
so short....

        Then, I remember... Micropolis has 5 years advance replacement
warranty.... am I correct?

        I ship back my HD to the vendor at Hong Kong at exactly 25th
Oct, 95. The staff told me the they will have my replacement before
15th Nov, 95 because they need time to ship the HD to Singapore... I
accepted....

        Today is 16th Nov, 95, they told me that "Oh, we need at least
1.5 months for your replacement....". They I think, what means of
replacement warranty??? I purchased a 2Gb Fast-Wide HD, it died at two
months, and I have to wait another 1.5 months (or more) for a new
one???

        This is Micropolis's company warranty policy???

	Next time when you cosidering Fast-Wide HD... best try Barraucada or
Altas II.

Rgds,
Lewis.
