Thanks, Tom. I'm cancelling my plans for buying a 4091, post haste! I haven't been able to find any more 2091's so I went with the GVP Impact Series II and it is working out very well; much better than the 2091, in fact. Of course it costs more than twice as much as the 2091 ($129), but I'm not complaining too much since it works. I have also found that using GVP's FaaaastPrep software to perform low level format on hard drives and SyQuest discs speeds them up considerably. And speaking of bad engineering, why is the mouse port on the left side of the box? Are there really more left-handed Amiga users than right-handed? And why is the box so small? Since the Toaster uses one slot and blocks a second slot, I had to build my own 'slot extender' and mount a TBC outside the box! And who's idea was that power switch? And what happend to the 'mono video out' jack that was so thoughtfully included with the A2000? Well, at least the video looks great!
