- Chippy boy, the fast hard disk interface you are talking about is

- top dollar for a brand new one, so look around and buy an old/used

- nor know what it takes to produce products like this for the commodore.

- ...Just some friendly advice.

- ps: Look around, I did...I didn't buy my ramlink from CMD but I
- did buy the upgrade (RamCard/RTC) for it from CMD...and yes,
- I got a very good deal on my Ramlink, I think I wound up paying
- about $25 for it to tell you the truth.
