PC IT 99
I be going to the PC IT 99 convention tomorrow. It’s a large PC convention being held in Darling Harbour, Sydney. They will be demonstrating the new Orb drive. It’s a “Jaz-killer” sporting 2.2GB cartridges at a fraction of the cost of Iomega’s Jaz Drive. The IDE version (over 10MB/sec transfer rate) of the Orb drive should come out at $400 (US$200 in America), and I think the cartridges are only $50 or so. I made a post on the Orb about half a year ago, when it sounded too good to be true. So it turns out it’s not vapourware.
