 To Kit:

 Yes, ICD sells one of the few hard disk interface systems for the 8 bit,
but they were correct when they said it would not work with the 1200XL. The
1200XL does not have the BUS on the rear, so the MIO unit would have no
way of connecting to the computer. Nor would the Supra system work for the
same reasons. It is too bad, really, since the 1200XL had THE best keyboard
Atari ever made (in my opinion...)
