I doubt empeg makes any more money on the bigger drives than they do on the smaller ones.

Well, there are some other factors involved...

Since Empeg isn't a big laptop manufacturer like Dell or Gateway, they can't source the bigger drives in large quantities without paying more. And they can't even GET large quantities of some drives that we could get more easily as onesie-twosie buyers. So even though there are 25-gb IBM Travelstars available, the current Empeg product line doesn't have them (although it might in the future when the availability loosens up). And as far as margins are concerned, Empeg's margins are the same percentage across their product line.
