Why is everyone so freaked out about C Ltds new controller??? You're not going to get anything in it that you haven't been able to get for over a year from Comspec in their SA1000 and SA 500 controllers. PROPER bus passthrough, (no terminators, no edge extenders no ANYTHING EXTRA required for proper operation) (No multiple expansion BS either) Autoboot from powerup (From power through kickstart load, to workbench/cli) high speed, high performance. easy to use installation software properly written device drivers automounting of multiple partitions following a commodore approved method. You can put Dragon's Lair on a hard drive partition. do i have to say anything else or has everyone got the point????? Simple Fact. Comspec is building the best and most reliable hard drive controller for the Amiga 1000 and Amiga 500 at this time. address: Comspec Communications Toronto Ontario, Canada 1-416-785-3553 fax: 1-416-785-3668 I own a Comspec controler, and it beats the living daylights out of the Cltd or Supra or Microbotics crap that I've seen on my friends A1000 or A500 systems. Other than that I have nothing to do with comspec other than being a person trying to beat a drum for them and maybe give them a little free advertising. if you have questions about the unit and how its working for me, email time....

To answer your question.... It will simply be THE fastest controller on ANY
Amiga, that's why! :>

P.S. And they have not forgot about the A1000 owners either. Like so many
other VERY well know companies, including the one with 4 letters! :>acs@pccuts.pcc.amdahl.com (Tony Sumrall) (02/28/89)
Can someone post details of this new controller? All I've seen is someone saying that it's no better than Comspec's and someone else saying that it'll be the greatest thing since sliced bread. How about some details?
