Recently someone posted a summary of preferred memory expansion units, with the Microbotics Starboard II coming out on top. Now that I'd like to get one, could someone mail me a good mail-order place? (I'm leaning towards The Software Shop, advertised in Amigaworld, has anyone dealt with these people before?)

I bought my Starboard II from Abel Supply for 430.32. It was in stock, and I had the board in two to three days.

I think their latest price is around $525.00. I got my 2meg StarboardII from Abel Supply for $430.31 several months ago. I have yet to find a lower price.

Comments? 3) Anyone know more about the rumor that MicroBotics is developing a SCSI daughterboard for the StarboardII? -scott
