Hello Rainbow fans,

I have recently purchased a Rainbow 100-B at an Auction, and have
been able to get a modest 5 MByte hard disk for it. 

But I do not have the Hard Disk controller card or data cable to
connect to the hard disk. My plan is to use this system as a Fido
type Bulletin Board for Digital rainbow, PRO, PDP-8 and PDP-11 users.

Can anyone help me locate a cheap Hard Disk Controller and data cable?
Preferably in Australia, but I guess they would not be heavy and hence
freight should not be a real problem.

Many Thanks, John G.
