	Magic Sac versions 4.52 and later (current version is 5.91,
version 6.0 is being worked on) will work on Mega STs and with hard disks.
The hard disk code supports multiple hard disks and allows up to 8 Magic
Sac partitions.  MFS hard disk partitions can be as large as 5 Meg, HFS
partitions can be as large as 16 Meg.  The suggested retail price of
the "Magic Sac" is US $149.95.

	The only printer drivers are for Epson compatible printers and
the Apple Imagewriter.  The suggested retail on the Epson printer driver
is US $45.00.

	If you purchase a "Translator One" you can read/write/format
Macintosh single and double sided disks using a standard ST disk drive.
It works with either internal or external drives.  The suggested retail
on the "Translator One" is US $279.95.

	Data Pacific does not currently sell in Europe and I don't
believe they have any plans to start selling there.  So you would have
to rely on the US dealer to supply any support (ie. software upgrades,
etc.) instead of getting it directly from Data Pacific.  You might have
some problems with repairs (if any are needed) since I don't know if
Data Pacific would pick up any of the shipping charges outside of the US
and Canada.
