I would like to get some feedback from those of you who have experience with
Bernoulli type cartridge disk systems, namely those by Bering and IOMEGA.  I
have been looking at the 20 meg models from both companies and am considering
the following factors in determining which one to buy (or none at all).

(The drive would be used on a Mac+.)

   * unit price vs. online storage per unit (single vs duel 20/40 meg prices)
   * reliability of the medium
   * compatibility with Mac SE and II (for later hardware upgrades)
   * cost of additional cartridges
   * failure rates of hardware
   * access speed (is it much slower than a typical SCSI HD)
   * various problems that you have run into
   * customer support of the product by the manufacturer
   * warranty info
   * drives from other companies not mentioned
   * anything else you think I should know

I will post a summary of the responses to the net.

Thanks in advance,
Mike Rosenberg
