They are pricing it the same as the cheapest SCSI 10K counterpart. They have
to use the same components as SCSI to get the lower seek time.

10K IDE may get cheaper over time. However, I think 2½" will replace 3½" on
the desktop and speeds will increase to 10K at the same time.

PS, why the hell does OE change the content-type from ISO 8859-1 to Windows
when I use 1/2?
