From: Eric <LAVITSKY@RU-BLUE.ARPA> Hi, Has anyone heard any specifics on , or seen any of the rumoured boards that will turn the 1541 into a parrallel bus drive? (thereby increasing its' speed). I'm really curious as to the feasibility of purchasing one- o Will it connect to the user or expansion port? o Will it keep the drive as devices 8-11? o Will all software (even stuff that modifies DOS) work on it? o How much faster does it make the 1541? - as fast as an IEEE drive??? o How much does it cost? - and... o How reliable can I expect it to be? (who makes it!) I will post a summary if I receive enough responses, Eric -------
