Upper Deck -- allows another 1 meg to be added
One, but not both at the same time of:
Stardrive -- SCSI interface and real-time clock -- See discussions in this
   group recently about what drives people use and performance, etc.
(Oh, gosh, I don't remember the exact name of the other one...)
Special Function Module (???) -- holds a 68881 and allows you to use
   parity with your memory in the host Starboard2

I've recently gotten some Microbotics Starboard stuff from InterComputing,
I think it is, in Texas.  They are relatively "next-door" to Microbotics
and seem to be able to get the products quickly.  I think their ad
in the latest AmigaWorld lists prices for all this stuff.
