They have a full-page ad in MacWeek and other Mac-specific magazines almost every week. They sell hard drives, optical drives, Syquest, etc. under their own label and other products. Three months ago I saw that they also sell external hard drive and Syquest kits. <VCP goof-up story deleted> -------------------------------------------- Just as another data point, I've purchased two external hard drive cases from them in the past year and a half. I've never had a problem with them, but since I live in the Orange County area, I just drove to their office and picked them up myself. In the past year, they've gone from a one man operation to 20 or so employees and seem to have become more disorganized. My only complaint with them was that the last time I bought a case from them I wanted to get a 50-50 SCSI cable instead of the useless 25-50 cable (which I've got tons of) that was included. Instead of just switching it, they charged me an additional $15 for the different cable. I know this is a minor quibble, but annoying nevertheless. The cases are pretty good quality though. -Chris P.S. Standard disclaimer...
