   A small outfit near Baltimore called Toad Computers makes the
same 44 Mbyte removable cartridge for less than Atari charges.
They put an ICD disk controller and a Syquest drive in your choice
of boxes with power supply and SCSI interface.  We have been using
one with our ST for three months and it works well so far.
