Good day all, With all the grousing lately (from my experience, well deserved) about shoddy practices by Amiga product vendors, I thought I'd pass along a pleasant experience with CLtd. I have a CLtd controller for the A1000 and have hooked it up on my own to a Seagate 277N (Hard Drive International has a good price on these btw.). When I was having troubles getting data on the drive, CLtd technical support helped me out. They have a great update policy for their driver software (3 disk set and new controller chip for $40) and when a buddy of mine called to order their replacement keyboard for the A1000 ($139) they not only called back to say they found a place in TX selling it for less but actually placed the order for him. Wonderful customer support !!! (Now the cynic in me says, wait for all this to come in before you get too excited :-)) As usual, I have no connection with CLtd other than being a very satisfied customer. \ ___ / Dane Skow __ / \ ___ "DIRECT Photons ?...

I happen to have a very similar setup to the one mentioned in the parent article to this (i.e. a 2000 with C Ltd. Controller hooked to a Seagate 277N Hard Drive). Can anybody tell me whether I am going to need anything special in order to go to Dos 1.3? Yes, I know that I won't be able to boot off of it, but I was wondering if I would need any special drivers in order to either make it work or make it use FFS. John Munsch P.S. No, I still haven't got a driver ready for the CGP 220 color printer. Does anybody know of a printer driver generator that already generates drivers for 1.3?
