I was astounded when I read the price you quoted.  $1400 ???  You can
buy a Kaypro-II for the newly-reduced price of $1595 and get a newly-
announced program that lets the Kaypro-II read and write all those
5-1/4" formats you mentioned.  If I needed that ability, I'd certainly
want to consider the Kaypro-II approach rather than the "Disk Maker"
because I'd have a whole computer rather than a drive and controller
to add to my present system.  I hope Rick Rump will consider this
before he sets his final price on the "Disk Maker".  My personal
opinion is that it shouldn't sell for more than $700.
