	I have a "bare-bones" IBM PC with 256k and 2 320k drives.  I would
like to upgrade to the following:

	Z80 / CP/M card
	Hard disk (any size)
	8" Disk controller

	I would like the 8" controller to be compatible with CP/M, MS/DOS
and CP/M-86, as well as the hard disk controller.  Also, future boards such
as memory upgrades, serial/parallel IO, etc. should be compatible with the
mentioned operating systems.

	Problem:  While there are IBM hard disk systems available, as well as
a few CP/M-Z80 cards and 8" controller cards, does anyone know if any vendor
or any person has packaged them together?

	Thanks
	Dave Norris
