Someone wanted the controller card and they were suppose to send me 10$ for
shipping.  It is a trumpcard. But so far has not sent me the money.
I used it on a 2000 until the 2000 died. The card and drive is in good order.
I
took stuff off it with my 3000T.
I wish that person would answer my questions about getting the card.  If not
would you be willing to pay extra for the card. I am paying for this tower.
I really need the money.

It measures roughly 10.5" x 8.5", is covered on top by a grey felt-like
material and on the bottom with foam rubber.  The pad is only 1/16th of an
inch thick and has a red "LINDY" manufacturer's logo on it in the top
right-hand corner.  Anyone know where I can get another one?  I've just about
worn mine out :)

As is. Worked fine 'til I added Workbench 3.1 to my A2000, then the
printer began flaking a bit on the parallel port. I believe this is a
known incompatibility. The serial port is faster than a standard Amiga
port. There's also room for another serial connector or a MIDI connector
though I don't believe the latter ever were made.

user: You are replying to All about "150MB Bernoulli FS".

Write your reply.

assistant: I have a 150MB Bernoulli Transportable For Sale.
This is the external, SCSI-2 version of a removable media drive which uses
150MB cartridges.  This unit recognizes smaller sized cartridges and has the
ability to "plug and play" with any SCSI equipped machine.
I have used this drive to make hard drive backups and to provide "Near Line"
storage to my BBS.  It has proven to be fast, quiet and much perferred over
floppies for making backups.  As far as making backups go, Quarterback,
AmiBack and DiskSalv each recognize the drive and handle multi-cartridge
backups with ease.  Using Quarterback and a modest 1MB cache (configured from
within QB), I can backup my harddrive at the rate of 7+ MB / minute.
In addition, this drive has provided me with the option of formatting media
in bootable Mac and/or PC volumes -- very useful when you want a bootable
ShapeShifter, PC-Task or Bridgeboard volumes.
I'm selling the drive, cable, manuals and a 150MB cartridge for $225
including postage.  If interested, contact me via e-mail.  Thanks!
