Oh, I beg to differ, C.Ltd has some of the best support I have ever
recieved, albet they are a little slow on the phone :-).  I was having a
problem once and they sent me a $50 MacII->SCSI style cable for free (I had
only bought their controller so they were under little if no obligation to
support my home-brew drive .... :-), now that's what I call GOOD customer
relations.

Gee, I called them back a few months later (well after my warranty was
up!) and they sent me an upgraded version of their SCSIDOS disk and a manual
disk too (I had a problem that was related to an old version of SCSIDOS by
a fellow USENETer).

Currently at 2.06 by my last venture.  At AmiEXPO Ed Lippart (company
President/founder) said when AmigaDOS v1.3 comes out (uugghhh :-), C.Ltd
will release SCSIDOS v3.0.  This is in beta test now, and they just keep
fine tuning it whenever CA comes out with a new version (gamma, omega,...
:-) of AmigaDOS v1.3.  I'm sure it will be well worth the wait.
