>>Is the ORB drive or the Nomai drive in stores yet? SR<<

Sheila, the Castlewood web page was updated yesterday to reveal that Orb is being beta tested in the real world right now, and shipments of EIDI internals will begin next month. Then Parallel port in June, then SCSI in July.

Sheila, Jaz is toast. Orb is much faster than Jaz 2, much less expensive than Jaz 2, has an edge in capacity over Jaz 2, and more reliable than Jaz 2.

For %^@&'s sake, Orb's only $199 for 2.1 Gigs! Syquest SparQ is history as well. This'll teach 'em its bad business to p*ss off Mac users by not making SCSI versions!

I strongly suggest any potential investors of removable drive stocks to wade through the putrid yellow, blue, and purple colors of the castlewood web site to see how their IOM investment is going to go up in smoke.
