Michael, I went to our CompUsa yesterday and saw the SparQ display. I have heard SparQ was a little on the flimsy side, but I was surprised to see just how rinky-dink it is. On the cart door, there is a spring-loaded strap that ends in a buckle on the outside. The drive must catch the tiny plastic buckle and pull to open the cart. Reminded me of starting a lawnmower. There is no real seal on the door. I could see about 1-2 millimeter gap all the way across the cart when the door is closed. Man are these things going to be returned. The dust will get in and destroy the R/W head. The disks, being metal, will probably last longer than the drive.

And this is the technology basket SYQT is putting all their eggs into.
