This is new-40mb-drive-configuration in view mode; [Up]


Date: Sun 03-Nov-1989 23:10:54 From: Unknown Subject: new 40mb drive configuration I am surprised that I haven't seen anything on the net regarding this yet. According to Infomat last week, Next has a new configuration that they are offering without the optical drive and just a 40MB for swap space at $4995 educational. Furthermore, they are including the 40MB drive in all configurations for page swapping. Is this for real or the result of an overzealous reporter?
