I'm pretty happy with my internal Diamond SupraExpress and I've seen the
external version of it recommended several times as well. I don't remember the
exact URL given but I believe it was at Diamond's own site which I think is
www.diamondmm.com.
I don't know if the sale is still going on or how much they're being sold for,
but I know you can also get the SupraExpress for somewhere around $60 at
buycomp.com.
