I have a question for CATS hardware folks or anyone else in the know:  Why
are hard disk interfaces on the 500 or 1000 slower than they are on the 2000?
Case in point:  Commodore A-590 is supposed to be electronically identical
in every important respect to the 2091, yet the 2091 can achieve much faster
transfer rates.  This seems to be a universal trait, but I can find no logic
or rationale behind it. 

Signed, a puzzled A-500 owner (and maybe soon-to-be 3000 owner!):
