An outfit called "Side-Effects, Inc." (in Raleigh, NC) has advertised
in a couple of AmigaWorlds and in Amazing Computing.  Their ad claims
they have a memory card called "Side-Store" that is 2 Meg/card with no
wait states.  Comes with "RAM-disk that survives resets/reboots".
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They're also advertising Side-ARM ... a 6/12 slot backplane that passes
the bus;  Side-Track ... an ST-506 compatible Hard Disk controller (with
built-in clock);  Side-Band ... a MIDI interface;  and Side-Port ... a
serial, parallel, and SCSI interface.

All products are said to provide full Zorro compatibility, auto-config,
6-month warrenty, etc.  No prices are given.

Anybody had anything to do with these products?  Are they vaporware or
available?
