Three questions:

1.  What's the experience with S-1 boards?  In particular, has anyone 
    used an S-1 board to add a hard disk to a system with a Persyst board?
    I have a 64k TIPC, a 192k Persyst board, and would like to (eventually)
    add a hard disk.  Also, does the S-1 provide a standard interface, so I
    can buy the board, and attach someone else's hard disk?

2.  I have the preliminary release of the Technical Reference (the hardware
    book).  This is rather incomplete, and states all over that it is only a
    preliminary release.  Was the 'final' release ever completed?

3.  Has anyone ever looked into a TI-IBM bus converter?  I think, with the
    exception of the clock rates, that the same signals are available on both
    busses, only the pins have been changed to protect the innocent.
