I have seen several articles refering to using an A590 on the Amiga 1000 and I
was wondering if you just plugged it onto the expansion port of the 1000 back-
wards, because I know the port is 180 degress different, or if you had to
make a hacked cable to do it.  I would like to know if I can buy just the A590
controller somewhere as I already have a 40mb HD that I am using.  I just want
to replace the controller that I am using.  Any and all help would be
appreciated.
