Re: Why a shortage of IDE drives?

I just had an afterthought. Why not just buy a Focus0 and find your own
drive...  You can format (prepare) the drive rather easily with the provided
utility.  If you have GS/OS laying around, it too is easy to load.  All you'd be
missing is the Shareware/freeware utilities.  Sepaking as someone who has
managed to unintentionally remove the software on all his original focus drives,
I can tell you it's not that tough to replace.  I ordered LemminGS from Joe
Kohn, Wolf3D, Prosel, and a set of OS disks from a friend.  (Focus to Focus
transfer makes life REAL easy.)

I'd be your friend if you need copies of stuff publicly available so you can
build your Focus0.  I think you have my number, Jay.

PS BIG thanks to one particular Lincolnite who helps me out!
