FOR SALE: PLI Infinity 44 MB Removable Cartridge drive,
plus 2 cartridges. Purchased about a year ago from
NeXTConnection.

I originally bought this drive so that I would have
some method of giving large files to my Service Bureau
for high-resolution Linotronic output.  At that time,
all of the Service Bureau's in the Salt Lake City, UT
area were using the 44 MB cartridges-- they had not yet
upgraded to the newer 88 MB cartridges.  At this time,
most of them have upgraded, so I will too.

WARNING: All 44 MB Removable Cartridge drives have a
known problem getting along with either of two Maxtor
hard drives--the 8380S (330 MB), and the 8760S (660 MB).
Note that these particular two models are the very ones
that NeXT shipped with their early cubes (most of the
stations have Quantum drives-- if you turn VERBOSE boot
mode on, it will tell you what drive you have during
boot-up).  I don't know if the problem is Maxtor's fault,
or PLI's (Syquest).  Just remember that if you happen to
have either of those two Maxtor drives, you don't want
to buy my PLI drive.

This drive works great (with the exception noted above),
and is black.  Unfortunately, it has scratches that
occured from sliding it out from under my CD-ROM drive
and 2.88 MB floppy drive.

Pricing starts at $450.00 (I pay freight and all C.O.D.
and/or charge card fees).  Price will be reduced $2.00
per day after 9/4/92 until sold.  I can take VISA or
MASTERCARD, as well as ship C.O.D.

Other than this $2.00 per day automatic price reduction,
the price is non-negotiable (I'm sure it will sell
eventually).
