Parport drives are hideously slow, and Scan are the biggest bunch of
cowboys on the planet. Also, with the Iomega drives, it's worth
considering the cost of the cartridges as well as the cost of the
drives - they look to be about 28 quid a pop.

[Is that 'really 10Gb' or '5Gb with the standard x2 lie', OOI?]
