I've heard that the MegaSTe1s released in Canada don't have the host
adapter installed.  Moreover, the mounting holes and brackets have been
removed.  Finally, (more bad news) from what I understand, there are
posts installed, seemingly to PREVENT a hard drive being installed.  The
top of the hard drive case isn't the same either; it's not as easy to get
into it as the other MegaSTes and TTs.  I think I read this on Fidonet.

The MegaSTes have only monitor output.

If someone knows more about the MegaSTe1 situation, please share it with
us.
