Yeah, really.  I noticed in Sunday paper fliers here that a couple of
the mass-marketers had like 80GB drives for $30 after rebate. And I saw
last week where Office Depot had a 60GB drive for $49.99, no rebates,
with store pickup or free shipping for orders over $50.

I was just playing with that 5.1 GB to see if the WD diagnostics might
fix it.  I had saved the drive from going to the "junkman" where I
formerly volunteered, and thought if I could get it going, I could
maybe put it in a little system for our grand-daughter to play games
on.  She is only 4 now, and our daughter will not let her get on their
main machine.
