They seem to be rather thin on the ground :( , I've been looking around 
(although not 'really' seriously) for one for a while. The odd one that 
does appear seems to fetch a lot of money too, then there's the 
potential horrors of the post service to consider too. Perhaps I'm 
looking in the wrong places ;) , although I'm giving thought to just 
acquiring and using an Archimedes and L4 instead (will be interesting to 
try it at least as I've neither had one or tried L4) so will be an 
experience if nothing else) :)

I thought recently about the idea of modifying a FileStore to use IDE 
devices (along the same lines as IDE for the 8 bit machines to replace 
SCSI) although that to me at least seems quite a sensible idea, its 
probably something for a separate discussion entirely :)
