Um, where in god's name have you seen these prices? The last I saw, the cheapest real brand name drives were $599 and the cheapest brand name disks were about $5. I don't mean stuff like Kmart cdroms or That's Cd-Rom. I mean TDK or Sony or Maxell or Phillips stuff. Where are you getting these prices? I've got mad WaReZ I want to share and I'd like to get a drive, but I was waiting for either my company's security to go lax or until the prices dropped. -CF
