>>Orb spinned at 5400rpm which is not faster than high speed real 16x or 20 to 24x CD-ROM today<<

Yes, I guess you're right about that, come to think of it. But of course, the Orb (and Jaz, etc.) platters do have more mass than a CD.

You're also correct in your other observations about the spin up times of various media.
