	Did Apple ever produce a platinum/grey version of the DuoDisk 5.25?
I know the Apple Monitor II was changed from beige to platinum color around
1987, as was the UniDisk 5.25 a year before (which became the "Apple 5.25" 
of course).

	I've always found the Disk III interesting, looks like a cross 
between the Disk II and UniDisk/Apple 5.25 Drive. :) It even used the
same r/w LED indicator, although it was below the shutter door.
