I note that the RT PC can use two PC/AT hard/floppy disk controllers provided
their jumper settings are different.   Is there any reason why the AT
(particularly running XENIX) shouldn't be able to also take advantage of this?
I'd love to have an external hard drive or two hanging off my machine since
I'm always tight on space, and really large drives of 140mb or so are still
too expensive.  Are there problems with allocating interrupts on the AT?
