Well, the one that was offered to me at the CHM's AppleLore event escaped,
though I've yet to hear back from the fellow who offered it (and I forgot
his name...doh!)
Certainly various Twiggy drives escaped, but mostly
just the ones
they shipped in the Lisa 1. They weren't used in any other production
product from Apple.
Except for the external Twiggy drive drive, yes?
BTW, I saw one
of the external Twiggy's at the CHM the other day.
I've been looking for a UniFile or DuoFile since 1983. I knew an Apple
employee who had two of them, but wasn't about to part with one. Of
course, the much more difficult items to find are the UniFile/DuoFile
interface cards for the Apple II and Apple ///.
I don't believe I saw an interface accompanying the drive.
