Hi Ed, and list,

I would like 2 of the assembled SDC boards.  My floppy drives and 250 - 300
disks have been in storage since 1996.  Now that I'm retired I'll have time to
see if any of them still work.

Thanks in advance, 

Derryl Cummings

Ed,

If this project gets off the ground, I¹d like one assembled board, and
would be willing to pay beyond cost. I appreciate Darren¹s skill and
expertise in designing this CoCo attachment, and yours in getting another
run of these boards produced.

Thank you.

Christopher Fox
