     There's a gadget called the Wedge, which hooks to the expansion
port on a 500 or 1000 and allows you to use a DTC-5150 ST-506
controller (used in many IBM PCs and available cheaply).  The machine
I'm typing this message on has had one for quite a while and it works
well.  For more information, contact:

     Be sure to specify whether it's for an A500 or an A1000.
