Is this true? Is there provision for daisy chaining it to my 5.25 and 3.5 drives? Since the Apple 3.5 drive is "dumb", I was wondering if other Macintosh external drives were also "dumb". Can you plug any "dumb" drive into an Apple IIgs? Also, I haven't been able to find a bookstore that carries the Apple IIGS toolbox reference manuals. I have to order them from some place in Canada or get the unhelpful folks at Computerland to scrooge up some. Is there a good reason why bookstores don't carry them? Or are they just too damn BITNET: DSEAH@WPI.BITNET INTERNET: DSEAH%WPI.BITNET@CUNYUM.CUNY.EDU
