Bill, I managed to get an IBM Bridge through my local dealer (after a long wait), but have been waiting for over a month for 2000 memory cards to come in. The 2090 controller is also nearly impossible to find, it seems, as your message suggests. What has CBM been doing? My dealer finally told me that he's giving up on getting memory boards from CBM and will try to fill his back orders with Micron boards (ASDG's design, I think — YAY!). Maybe I'll have to wait until Perry gets his HD controller out the door before I can add an HD also. It is frustrating to wait for so long for what _should be_ easily available items. It's a consolation that the shortages stem from Amy's growing popularity, but still a frustration. Bill, I'm sorry I pulled on your ear about this, but I couldn't contain myself any longer! 73, Darron (NR0Y) P.S. — Bill, do you get on the air much? I'll listen for you.
