Further to my search for the perfect winnie, and my failures, I have
uncovered something which you may find attrative.


Wetern Dynex  are doing a special offer of up to TWO  WD505 drives
for  US$495.oo each !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Western are at
	3536 West Osborn Road
	Pheonix  AZ 85019
	(602) 269 6401

Contact is Christine Flaherty  in Marketing.



These are  %.25"  5Mbyte  Cartridge drives with ST506 interfaces.
They appear as if they are gigantic 5.25" floppies, but the disks are
more expensive (??? $50 ????)

Strikes me as a good and easy intro to hard disks for CP/M types or as
a back-up system.

Hey, anyone going for MARC ??

I would also be grateful if anyone could dig out a ST506 interface
specification and mail it to me here at HCR.

If you like this offer but have hassle, how about orgaising a bulk purchase ?
I am willing to act as co-ordinator.
