Yup. I'm happy with the Miniscribe drives that we got. The price was great,
the service has been fine, and they shipped the drives to the non-local
folks, saving Karl a heap of trouble. All in all, we got a good deal!

If we wait a year (or maybe 6 months), there will be a {bigger/smaller/
faster/slower/same} drive for less money. It never fails in this industry.
It was the right drive, and the right time, at the right price for me.
