In the US, finding the controller is difficult but not impossible You may
need to wait for awhile (to spot one) and be prepared to spend $80 - $150,
or you might get lucky and find one for less with a "buy it now" auction on
eBay, or from a fair-minded seller here on CSA2. Make sure you look for (and
get) the Apple 3.5 Controller, not the "Liron" UniDisk 3.5 card.

If you're in Europe... well, I'd rather calculate the gravitational effects
of planetary satellites have on differential orbital variances for
inter-solar comets.
