I just saw (actually about a month ago, but I havn't seen anyone post
about it so here goes) the Supra FD-10 disk drive in "Byte".  This drive
allows you to save ten megabytes on a 5 1/4 floppy disk.  It acts as a
hard disk, and is said to take 80 milliseconds to access.  It comes with
software and cables.  It plugs into the DMA port, and costs $895 for the
Atari and Mac, and $1095 for the Amiga<--Ha Ha they have to pay more
he,he.  :-)

I called up my Atari dealer, and they said that they had talked to Supra
a week ago.  Supra was finishing the software, and the store expected to
have it in about two weeks.

If you want more info, contact Supra yourself:  Supra Corp.  1133
