i have been wanting to add a harddrive subsystem to my atari for some time
now.  i have a st-225 sitting idle and i was wondering if anyone had (or
knew of) an atari-st506 type interface for sale.  i have an XL so the
parallel bus is available.  otherwise, is it possible to hook my scsi drive
that's in my AT to the atari at the same time?  i know that this is grabbing
at straws, but i'm looking for anything...

also, is the turbo-816 board available still?  i imagine that this would be
a perfect vehicle for a MINIX port, if someone wanted to take the time, but i
don't seem to see any info about it anymore.

thanks,
