Yes, Syquest is out of business, and support for that sucker is going
to dry up in the near future (ie nobody will make new cartridges for it,
etc).  Perhaps at some point in time they retailed for $300, but most of
the time I saw them (when Syquest still existed) they were running about)
the same price as a Zip drive (ie about $200).
