I must misunderstand your statement. Are you claiming that you couldn't
walk before moving the RA80? How did the RA80 cure you? Sounds like
a miracle to be; only three more needed before the RA80 becomes a saint. :-)

As Al and I were unloading racks of System Industries Clustor 3 disks
(at about 500 lbs. each), one of them nearly got away from him, and would
have fallen on me if it had. I can just imagine what people's reactions
would have been to hearing that I was killed by a falling disk drive:
"What kind of freak accident was that? Disk drives only weigh a pound or
two!"
