Hi, to expedite your order, get in touch with Tony Diaz.  You
can get his email address from http://www.apple2.org/ his
web site.  He designed the Sirius card and is the Apple II
guy at Alltech but I think he's not there all the time anymore
because he is attending college.  However, I had users email
me to say that an email to him speeds an order more than
several to the address on Alltech's web site.  Good luck!
