It is a double sided, double density drive which operates at 3 times the speed of the 1050 drive. Its new DOS is called ADOS, which is being finalized by OSS, and features a heirarchial file structure (like the ST and MSDOS). Pricing should be very close to the current 1050 price. Availibility was not yet announced, but is expected before the end of the year. -- -Marc L.
