Has anyone heard about a 600 MB rewritable optical disk drive for the Mac? I
heard rumor around town that a local company is introducing one at Macworld
but when I called then they didn't have a comment. Their only reaction was
'We will be introducing all new products at Macworld'. I thought that there
were only WORM drives on the market. Is this something real new or are there
already units on the market? If anyone has any information I would like to
know because I have just purchased a Mac and was looking a buying a hard
drive but if I can get a removable 600 meg optical disk for a good price I
would rather go that way.

Thanks
Gary

(P.S. The company that I talked to was MACsetra International)
