A local typesetting service bureau needs a mass-storage device to perform
archiving functions. The way I see it, there are two options - the 10 MB
"MegaFloppy" disk drive (available from Jasmine, Peripheral Land, etc.),
which costs about $1000 for the drive and $40 each for the disks: or a 
Bernoulli drive (available from Bering, Mountain Computer), around $1200
and $? for the Bernoulli cartridges. The considerations are:

1) reliability. They don't want to lose this data (who ever does?).
2) quality of drive software
3) price of cartridges/floppies

I welcome any comments - please reply by e-mail. If there is enough interest,
I will summarize and post the summary to the net.

Also, does anyone have any comments on the Rodime RX-1000 100 MB internal hard
drive for the Mac II?
