[Coco] SuperIDE Comments

[Boisy G. Pitre]

Folks,

Today I received my SuperIDE prototype rev #2 in order to refine the 
software and documentation for the product.  I have to say that this 
turn of the board is gorgeous and FAST!  Mark has done a terrific 
engineering job here, and I have to say it is the most jam-packed CoCo 
peripheral to come out in many years.    I'm using a 64MB CompactFlash 
device plugged into the built-in socket, and HDB-DOS 1.1 burned into 
flash bank #0.  On a CoCo 2, the DIRs just scream on by.  You can 
imagine what a CoCo 3 running at double-speed will do!

The construction is solid and superb.  The case is your standard floppy 
controller sized covering, and this thing fits nicely on the side of a 
CoCo.  The LED flashes on CF accesses, so you know when data is 
traveling.

For those of you with SuperBoard down payments, I  know it has been a 
long time in coming... please be just a little more patient!  With the 
R&D that Mark and I have invested into this product, we feel confident 
that the SuperBoard is going to be one hell of a knock-out product.
