YORBA LINDA, Calif.--(BUSINESS
WIRE)--July 20, 1999--QPS Inc. (www.qps-inc.com)
Tuesday announced that it will introduce its new Que!(TM)Fire(TM)
drives, the FireWire interface versions of its Que! CD-Rewritable
(CD-RW) drive, at MACWORLD Expo New York this week.
With an average access time of
120ms, the speedy drives are designed for Apple G3 and PC desktop
computers. They will also be compatible with any future FireWire-equipped
computers.
Que! Fire comes in two versions: a
6x4x24x speed model and a 4x4x24x model. Both drives feature 1x
through 24x rotational speeds. Like the original Que! Drive, they
can read/write data and/or record music on CD-R and CD-RW media,
which may then be played on any CD-ROM drive or CD player.
They have 2MB of buffer RAM to
support application flexibility and are ideal for MP3 recording,
desktop publishing and data archiving. Que! Fire drives come ready
to plug and play. They include CD mastering software (Toast for
MAC, Easy CD Creator for the PC, and Direct CD for MAC and PC),
CD-Recordable media, CD-Rewritable media, a carrying bag, and
necessary accessories.
The Que! Fire 6x4x24x sells for
$399 (MSRP), and the 4x4x24x model sells for $299 (MSRP).
Availability is scheduled for August.
Pierre Abboud, QPS vice president,
said: "We have had a tremendous response to our original Que!
Drive for the iMAC and USB MACs, and we expect the same interest
in Que! Fire. It has the same compact ergonomic shape that
everyone fell in love with, and the same reliability and
features."
