Re: IIGS mass storage ideas

I may have a working Vulcan laying around if you really want one.  I'd need 
to test it to make sure it's really working though.

I would really recommend the MicroDrive.  I like how you can boot from any 
partition by doing a Contrl-Open Apple-Reset, continue to hold down the 
Apple and press the volume number you wish to boot from.  Install DOS.MASTER 
on one partition and have fun with the old DOS 3.3 game files.

BlueDisk 1.44" Floppy Drive controller is about to be re-released too.  What 
a time saver to just load images on to a disk using CiderPress from the PC 
and just inserting it in to the Apple.  Done.  You can also do the same with 
the CF cards, but a floppy is so much easier and more available.  Keep and 
eye open and visit the site often.  Bill or I will also post a message when 
it's listed in the Store.
