MARCH has a duo drive. All yours for the bargain price of $1,000. :)

indeed... for that price it ought to be delivered by Woz, and autographed by
him too ! :-)
To what do you attribute that price? Ignorance? Greed? Cockeyed
optimism? An unhealthy dose of all three? I'm often stunned when I see
things like this on eBay. Do people actually find buyers willing to
pay these prices?
And a lot of nerve... you don't even get a color monitor for that price !?
I can put together the same setup (possibly minus the duo drive), including
the same exact monochrome monitor... and I'd be happy to let it go for a
penny on that seller's dollar :-)
