I know from reading the mails that a lot of you are interested in electronics, and always looking for a source and a good price. Many of you may know of Fry's Electronics _www.outpost.com_ (http://www.outpost.com) but since they only have stores in the largest cities, many may not. Frys runs several ads a week and the one on Friday is 8 pages big, viewable on line. Noted tonight is a 1TB internal hard drive for $199.95 by Maxtor. order # 5524820. Or a 500 GB external drive for 114.99, by Western Digital. order # 5530040. The one Terabyte hard drive caught my eye because I used to be Chief Engineer of a computer facility for a major insurance company. I remember taking tours through our facility and speeling about our 2.3 Terabyte network, a 16,000 square foot room with spinning hard drives (multiple discs the size of a dinner plate), and main frames, consuming 600 KW of conditioned, uninteruptible power! Another 400 KW was consumed to provide cooling for said room! Hardware value--about 60 million dollars!! The staff to program and coordinate these resources approached 200. Now you can lay down $200 and plug this drive into your home PC! Incredible! Memories--- Jim Friesen Phoenix AZ 79 300SD, 264 K miles 98 ML 320, 155 K miles
