For Sale: Catweasel MK4 PCI

Asking 100 USD or best offer. I live in Cary, North Carolina. If you are in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill region and are interested shipping costs can be avoided.

I used this device to make floppies for my Amiga 1000. Some floppies worked, some didn't, some floppy drives are better than others, etc. Reading in old Amiga floppies is almost flawless, using HD discs to write floppies isn't. I can't demonstrate this device as my classic machines are gone and I've tossed all my desktop machines in the dumpster. This card performed as it should when I pulled it from my machine.

(and yes, this card is sitting on an anti static mat)

I'm interested.  I'm in North Raleigh.
What are the interfaces on this card (i.e. the ribbon cable)?
Does it plug into a "normal" PC (running WIndows XP)?

Thanks,
Lance

It's a PCI card, interfaces are standard floppy headers (it has two). Cool, you are local, PM me, no problems swinging by your place and letting you try it out. The machine I used it on was a p4 running Windows XP.

I also have a crap ton of floppy drives (thanks Redrumloa) of various makes and models. A good combo is surely to be had.
