A while ago I asked about getting a 3.5'' disk for my enhanced //e.
This is a rendered down version of the response I got:
1) I need a "Unidisk", not a regular dumb Mac drive. *
2) The accessory kit is just the interface card, and the stuff to
install it.
3) Catalist 3.0 is a copy protected program selector, and it sucks.
Don't waste money on it.
4) If I pay $500 for the kit, I'll make Dan Quale look smart by
comparison.
*One person mentioned picking up a Central Point controller card and a
regular 3.5 drive, but he had a Lazer.
If any of this isn't accurate I'd appreciate knowing about it. What
I'd really like to find is a good 3rd party controller and drive that's
ProDOS compatable.
Thanks to Michael J Pender, Mike Jetzer, and Andy Tefft for
responding.
Dale.
