 purchased my Spectre GCR from 1st Stop Computer Systems in Dayton. Ohio.
I ordered it last Monday, and received it on Thursday.... since UPS takes
that long just to ship from Ohio to Florida, it must have gone out the same
day.... If anyone is interested, their number is 1-800-252-2787.  I don't know
whether or not they handle overseas orders, but anyone interested could try 
writing them at 1st Stop Computer Systems Ltd
                7085 Corporate Way
                Dayton, OH 45459
                USA

Their prices are very reasonable ........

Also , someone was looking for a program to change the step rate of a drive
under TOS 1.4  ...  DCFORMAT will allow you to write an executable boot sector
which will change the drive speed on either drive.  Just write this boot sector
to a disk and boot from it to set ur drive speed.  I tried this along with my
hard drive boot program (ICD 4.5.1) and a program called CAUTO.PRG which allows
one to boot from a floppy, and then run auto folder programs and/
or accessories from the hard drive....   E-mail me for more info..
