Looking through the many mail order adds, I have noticed many drives offered by companies other than Apple which claim to be "compatable with all Apple software". One of the most promising of these seems to be a model A2 by Micro-Sci. Since this would be my first disk, I would need to purchase their controller board along with the drive. Are these drives truly compatable with all Apple software? Do they come with an operating system of the DOS 3.3 type? If anyone has some information, or better yet, has used some of these "generic drives", I would greatly appreciate some feedback. These drives appear to be a good deal less expensive, but I know nothing of their quality/compatability/reputation. Thanx. Chuck Slana ihuxm!ces
