2129.0. "Apple drives price competitive" by CSSE::WARD () Thu Jan 19 1989 13:53

I've been pricing Pheonix/Supra/C-LTd 40 MB drives.  Today Apple announced
new prices on their drives.  I can get an external SCSI drive from
Apple at or below the Commodore mail order houses.  Does anyone have an 
Apple external drive on their Amiga.  I rather upset at the high prices &
low reliability out there.  [Price announcements follows]

    Even those prices are quite high.  I just purchased a Jasmine
    Direct Drive 100 for $1099.  Jasmine Technologies have some of the
    most reliable drives around (SCSI).  If you check the Macintosh
    Notes File, I put up a price list of the December Hard Disk prices.
