Re: Portable Apple II

I know there's ways to shrink your design even more. What about those little 
bitty hard drives(20megs) Alltech is selling. The picture makes it look just a 
bit bigger than a 3.5" floppy disk. And ///SHH Systeme sells an IDE controller 
for the IIe/gs that is also very small. I assume these things use less power, 
too.

Got any pictures of your IIec?
