- I bought the Go 120 MB from APS, paid $469.00 + Shipping. Comes with
- detailed installation instructions but no tools to open the PB. APS
- sells the tools for an additional fee (don't know how much). The drive
- works well so far, faster than the original Conner 40 MB. Yes, the
- drive also comes with APS formatting software but I don't use it so
- I have no opinion about it. The drive comes formatted with system 7.x.x
- installed and lots of free/shareware.
