Given the large readership of comp.sys.amiga, I was expecting something
like that, but having them run out just one day after my posting is pretty
amazing.  BTW, I did order 1 128K ROM BEFORE I posted :-)  As far as I know,
Pre-Owned Electronics is the largest distributor of MAC parts.  They also
sell entire Apple motherboards.  Also note that the price of non-Apple
made disk drives is much less than what previously advertised: you can
find them for $199 or less (see any of the MAC magazines).

OK. I'll start looking more carefully.
