Wow! good deal! I see the go for overly expensive prices when they do pop up...
<sigh> Have the card, need the drive. Also wish I could find the SE-Bus
version of the card...much rarer AFAIK...
I saw one on eBay not too long ago, but the guy was selling it with a
bunch of Apple IIgs stuff he didn't know much about. I tried to tell him
that there was literally no way he could be using that on his GS (I even
asked here for verification and got it) I can't remember if it could be
used with the PCT or anything, but the guy didn't really have any
applicable cards in the gs anyway. sigh. Guess I'll just keep searching.
Oh, as an aside, can the PC external drives which use the same kind of
connector be attached to the drive? or does it have to be an apple model?
I saw a drive which had the exact same connector, but it was some PC-brand
manufacturer.
