100GB, 9.5mm thick HD from Toshiba
zmcnulty writes "Toshiba has announced their new hard drive today with a 100GB capacity. It's a 2.5 inch drive, is only 9.5mm tall, and supports ATA/100. The (Japanese) Impress Watch article I translated offers a couple more details, though not many. The OEM sample price is about $1,092 USD...but don't ask me what that means for consumers. The previous capacity title was held by IBM with their 80GB Travelstar."

We can help!!
Check this out!!!
He placed the hat upon the glass floor, made a pass with his hand, and then removed the hat, displaying a little white piglet no bigger than a mouse, which began to run around here and there and to grunt and squeal in a tiny, shrill voice He reached up, caught Rob by the heels, and pulled him down to the ground, away from the fire
The people watched it intently, for they had never seen a pig before, big or little But the next moment, as he clung to the boy's feet, they both soared into the air again, and, although now far enough from the fire to escape its heat, the savage, finding himself lifted from the earth, uttered a scream of horror and let go of Rob, to fall head over heels upon the ground
And I'll get the answers out of the way as well:
1. - because for $250 you are getting something that can actually play the music...instead of a really thin brick that would just holds music.
2. Yes. As well as every other data format that can be stored on a hard drive.
Whatever happened to those guys anyway? I kinda miss them.
haha
