Ah, so that's what it is about. Actually, that's the one thing about the Apple II community which has always driven me up the wall. I'm here because I enjoy old computers. Not buying every new gadget which comes out does not imply support or non-support in any sense, contrary to the opinions of some memebers of the community. It simply means that I have to justify the purpose and the price. Buying a 4 MB card when you don't have a use for one violates the justifying the purpose. And, quite frankly, your justification of using it to copy floppies strikes me as hollow (the original poster has a hard drive, so it could just as easily be cached on the disk as in RAM). The value of a product is largely a judgement call which has to be made by the individual, and not by other people (never mind salesmen). We don't really know what the needs of this individual are (aside from wanting to use the hard drive), we don't know how interested they are in the IIgs, and we don't know what their financial situation is. In other words, presenting all of the options (not just one) would be fair game.
