[SunRescue] Better system for desktop PC?

[Jason Alexander]

I got much better quotes from a salesman at www.workstation.net  - I don't
know how valid quotes are when you get them second hand, but you should
email them to get current prices.  I think their prices were the best I
found and they are listed among mr_bill's recommended sellers I believe.  I
was going to buy one, but I think I may stick my teeth in a VS-840EX
multitrack recorder instead. (DOH)  This quote is from 6/4/99:
