I did panic a bit when I read shortly after ordering the card that the 8MHz Zip
Chip was not longer available for the 8-bit Apple II. And then the fit really 
hit the Shan when the Chapter 11 stuff came on line last week. From the latest 
info Zip seem to have traded out of their troubles, though, and it seems might 
even see the 8-bit product back on the market soon.

Well, at least I can feel I've done MY bit to keep the wolves from their 
door...   :-)
