I've had several inquiries and our mailer doesn't seem to know how to reply
to any of them, so...

The $98 10 meg hard disks and the $269 20 meg + controller I mentioned earlier
were in the back of the last two issues of BYTE. Note that these are IBM
compatible drives, not SCSI. I'm still looking for a controller for the A1000
that will let me use one of these. I'm tempted to get one and try to kludge it
together myself but grad school, work, the kids, and some other programs are
taking up about 150% of my time right now.
