But that's a function of the FDC controller board, right ?
I see, that there are different versions. One is the
5015481 Rev B board with the 1793 controller, the other is
5015481 Rev C version with the 1799 controller ...
The 100B was a
lower-priced version of the 100+. I'm sure there are other differences, but
these are the key ones.
Isn't the "+" just meant for the harddrive ?
