>I recently got a ThinkPad 701C with 8 MB RAM and a 720 Million Byte >(what a scam) Hard Drive. Least to say I though I got a good deal Huh? What do you mean a scam? I got my 701C last Thursday (with 16 megs and 360 HD) and I love it. I had a ThinkPad 500 for 2 years and trust me color and sound make a difference... My point is, the 701 is still a laptop. If you really wanted real mass storage, you shouldn't have gotten a laptop in the first place. Get a SCSI-based PC and get 9 gig drives for it... As for my TP, 360 is a little small so I ordered a 720, but that should be sufficicient for most laptop use... >I considered the ZipDrive, but 100MB is too small, and the disks are >rather expensive. That's what I use (at home and work) and I love it. If you have the cash you could spring for the Jaz drive (from Iomega as well)... It cost $599 (for the external version), but each disk (well more like cartridge) hold 1 gig and is as fast as today's hard drives... -- Yann Nicolas Systems Coordinator -- Columbia Graduate School of Journalism nicolas@columbia.edu -- http://www.columbia.edu/~yn25/soccer.html
