Well... my offer stands as long as I have a spare IIc Plus, which is
"for the foreseeable future".  Figure out how to modify the Vulcan
firmware to accomodate other hard disks and it's yours.

I gave a third one to Wayne Stewart a few years back just because he
didn't have one and had done so much for me and the Apple II community.


When I first made that offer, these new IDE cards didn't exist. So
there's less motivation now, I suppose.

But I love those Vulcans. Must be the name. Live long and prosper!
