>> Have you been hearing about the new IDE drives … << You know Don for once in a long time, I really really agree with you! <g> Yes I've noticed the advances in IDE and they do seem more stable than SCSI. This may be totally subjective, but I have been a strong proponent of SCSI's especially since the release of SCSI II but I'll tell you I'm very impressed with the Micropolis. But to tell you what I've also been hearing is that they are going to be introducing really fast SCSI II's also. The technology is not so different. None the less I will be glad to have the faster IDE and the improved picture quality. One thing I've noticed about you, and this is not an attack, but you get convictions about things, and it seems to me to the exclusion of other options. I'm not as convinced that the PAR is the answer or an Abekas. I see plenty of room for the MAX. Its not vaporware. I've said many times that I'm very happy with the PAR, but should the occasion warrant I wouldn't hesitate to get the MAX if it was available and I needed its capabilities. Ironically I think the PAR is better suited to the work I do and the MAX is better suited to the work you do. But that's just my opinion. -JE
