Hi gang.

After 3 Faxes (I'll send _one_ more today) to PLI without answer,
I'm turning to the collective wisdom of 'the net'...

I have a 040 cube, and have sold the OD and the hard disk (330MB).

I was thinking of buying  a PLI Floptical as a replacement for
the OD - sounds good to have compatibility with regular dos/unix/
mac floppies and also have a 21 MB backup option when needed.

Unfortunately, they are currently not available in Norway, and my
repeated attempts at contact have not helped.  NeXTConnection
has been extremely helpfull, but unfortunately does not carry the
Floptical drive.

So, does someone know where I can buy a Floptical drive for the 
NeXT?

Please include a Fax number, if you have one.

Does anyone have a better idea than a Floptical (I need to be able
to read/write at least Dos disks to transfer files to/from work)?

Your help is appreciated.
