As I read this, I can't help but realize that April 1st is only a couple
of weeks away.  Sorry, but I still find it a pretty big pill to swallow.
 
Discussion:
For the prices quoted, it just MIGHT be possible that such a mass data
storage device MAY exist... considerf the price of a 20 MB HD when they
first became available.  (You can buy 'em now - used - for $5-10).  And
I would think that the established makers of HDs and related devices,
such as ZIP drives, would be not only watching it very carefully, and
will probably fight like tigers to block the competition, at least when
the price starts dropping, (assuming it's all it's claimed to be)!  OTOH,
if it _HAD_ come from the remains of the Roswell "event," I would think
that it would have either stayed buried forever in the Pentigon's vaults,
or would have been exploited years ago - by the time when Govt. main-
frame computers switched from magnetic core to solid state RAM!
 
Catch you later... Keep l00king up.
