I bought one of these about two months ago.  No problems with the dealer or
the disk to date, and I already have close to three hundred hours on it.
Minuses: a little more prone to shrieking (discharge brush?) than my old
Jasmine 20 (a great disk, BTW!), minimum documentation, not particularly fast.
Still, a LOT of megabytes per buck.
