It's REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY cheap to BUILD your own damn AMAX if ya wanted... The only thing an amax does is pass the register up by one and interface the apple's drive to the amiga re-routing the pins... and a couppla logic chips to facilitate it... actually, I've seen AMAX-I totally in software. Makes it a little difficult to, for instance, read Mac disks as there's no way to put a Mac drive on it, but I hear it's even faster in loading the ROMs.... I couldn't tell you if they've hacked out AMAX-II on disk yet.
