The place with the $129 QIC-100 drives is:

HSC Electronic Supply
3500 Ryder Street
Santa Clara, CA  95051
(408) 732-1573
Toll Free (Orders only, out of state) (800) 4-HALTED

I was there Saturday and bought one.  They have about twenty left.  They don't
have docs, but expect to get have them this week.  I bought a formatted DC2000
cartridge ($19.95 at Fry's, ouch!) tried it out on a Mac and it worked fine.
I figure that if I can't ever get it to work with my Amiga, I can throw it
in a box with a power supply and sell it to some Mac feeb for what it cost me.
