Hi John, Ha! I think I've got a box or two of 12" sitting around the house ... if the fiancee hasn't tossed them yet. Lemme see --- 5.25" for sale via auction: <http://auctions.cnet.com/cgi-bin/osa/ViewPage.cgi?templateName=item_for m.htx&itemNumber=839509> and a couple here maybe: http://www.pricewatch.com/2/50/54-1.htm Ah! Here we go ... $9 a pop ... how many ya want? http://www.basoncomputer.com/productlist.asp?013160582 HTH, RonL. -----Original Message----- From: John Handelaar [mailto:john at userfrenzy.com] I haven't seen a 5.25" drive *anywhere* since at least... ...oh, '92 I guess. I doubt it's cheap no matter what the connector is. In practical terms it might as well be 8" these days :-)
