Summary:A box to transform ST disk drive



In the last newsletter from Data Pacific, it did not give any price for the
Mac Disk drive transformer.  It did say that it was a box that would attach
to the ST and disk drive and it would automatically switch back and forth
between ST and Mac "modes".  It would also work with the internal drive
on the 1040ST.  Sounds really neat...

As for pricing, I got my Mac for $135 including ROMs... Whoops, I mean
Magic Sac +.  There is no release date (yet) for the disk drive transformer,
hence, no vaporware.  However, they have said that it is almost done...

As a side note, I got some PD printer drivers for the Epson MX, FX, and 
QX for the Mac.  I use the FX printer driver with my Panasonic KX-P1091
printer and it works great!  If anyone would like them, I will either
send it to them directly, or, if there is sufficient interest, I will
post them.
