MEGADISC DIRECT MAIL SERVICE  Don't forget that Megadisc is now an agent for most distributors of commercial Amiga hardware and software, as well as our own sourced products. So why get your hardware and software through MegaDisc? 1. Subscribers get a 5% discount on all prices. 2. All orders get free disks: * with all orders up to $100, a free Catalogue-disk or other PD disk of your choice (please ask). * With all orders up to $500, 5 PD disks of your choice (ask for them). * With all orders greater than $500, a 3-issue subscription to Megadisc (or extension to your current subscription). So before you go ahead and buy that product from somewhere else, check with Megadisc for our deals and prices - we'll match authentic prices quoted elsewhere, and still give you the freebies mentioned above, so you can't lose! What's more you'll be helping your favourite disk-mag to maintain the quality of our products and services. Note that the 10% discount on Megadisc and PD available to pensioners and students doesn't apply for mail order items (there'd be no margin left!). All Prices are inclusive of Sales Tax. Please note that we do our best to provide the goods requested as soon as possible (as anyone who has used our PD service knows) - it may happen occasionally that some goods are temporarily out of stock, and if so, we'll let you know. Add $3 p&p for software deliveries unless otherwise noted; for hardware, assume the P&P is $15 unless advised otherwise. If you receive a faulty item, call us immediately to arrange a replacement. Send in your order by mail (use FREE POST 80 to save yourself a stamp), or phone (use our FREE NUMBER 008 227 418) or fax it in to us. If you get our answering service when you phone, please leave your name, number and order and we'll get back to you immediately. Direct Mail Products available from Megadisc RAM/SCSI/HARD-CARD FOR $289! SCRAM 2000 16-bit RAM EXPANSION & SCSI INTERFACE/HARD CARD FOR THE A2000/3000 This is a top-of-the-range RAM board, with a 16-bit SCSI interface. The RAM uses low-cost ZIP Rams (the same as used in the A3000, ie 4 chips per 2 meg of Ram); can be ordered with 0, 2, 4 or 8 Meg of Ram. It will even accept the older 1 Meg ZIP chips (giving a maximum of 2 meg if filled with these). This is also a HARD-CARD, ie, you can mount a SCSI hard drive on the card itself with very simple installation, and you can daisy-chain up to 6 MORE SCSI devices. This card supports any SCSI device, including the new FLOPTICAL 20-meg removable floppy drives (also soon to be available from Megadisc - call and enquire), which can also read Apple and IBM 720K and 1.44Meg drives, for greater flexibility (thus usable with such programs as CrossDos). This card has been clocked achieving speeds up to 1.8 Megabytes per second in an accelerated A2000. This is fast! The software, SCRAMPREP, has been specially written for the unit, and makes installation a breeze. Here is a real chance to get locally designed, world-class hardware at a very low cost - compare any other similar unit on the market, and you'll find them paling in comparison. At this price, you could buy it as just a RAM expansion card for the A2000/3000, and have the hard-disk expandability as an added bonus. Check our prices below for SCSI hard disks to accompany this card. RRP is $289 zero RAM; $439 with 2 Meg of RAM; $589 with 4 Meg of RAM; and $889 with 8 meg of RAM.  SCRAM 500 8-MEG RAM AND SCSI INTERFACE FOR THE A500 This is the A500 version of the SCRAM SCSI Ram controller - it's small, beautifully designed, has 3 LED status lights, can auto-boot & has auto-boot disable switch, & full autoconfigure for Ram and whatever SCSI device you attach (hard disk, CD-Rom player, Syquest, Tape Streamer, etc.). RAM can be added to 2, 4 or 8 Meg using ZIP DRAMs which are fully socketed (and also available from us). The SCSI is very fast & industry standard - just plug your SCSI hard drive in and zoom! The software SCRAMPREP has been specially written, is very powerful and easy to use, and will do all you need to set up hard disks, etc. with simple mouse clicks. I believe it is the ideal add-on for the A500 since it gives you memory, storage and eventually an accelerator all in one tiny box. Ask us about finding SCSI hard drives at good prices. Price: $279 with no Ram fitted $429 with 2 Meg of Ram. (Let us know if you want more fitted.)  DOUBLE-KICKSTART BOARD FOR A500/2000 (K/S 2.04 included) This is the fully assembled Hardware Project featured on MEGADISC 26, which provides you with 2 Kickstarts accessible by a click of the mouse button. NO soldering is required - the unit plugs straight in to the old Kickstart ROM socket. Full fool-proof instructions are given. Note that the price of $100 includes the Kickstart 2.04 ROM, so nothing more is needed except to follow instructions on where to insert your existing Kickstart 1.3 ROM. [P&P $7.50]  MAESTRO MODEMS MAESTRO 2400 ZXR - This is the standard in external modems, all baud rates up to 2400, along with all the other features you expect - Hayes AT command set, diagnostics, battery-backed ram, auto baud rate detect, etc. This is a fully Australian-made product.

We can also provide the necessary toner cartridges, cleaning magazine, and OPC magazine. Enquire about postage arrangements.

Prices: 0 K $349 1 Meg $419 2 Meg $499 [P&P $15]  Phoenix Board If you're interested in this major resuscitation of the A1000 via full mother-board replacement/upgrade, register with us. Ask us about the following hardware as well: Video Breakout Box This has Scart, S-Video and RCA inputs and outputs so that you can connect any video equipment together, no matter what type of connectors they use. This means you don't have to buy extra cables and adapters - any two pieces of equipment can be connected with a set of standard RCA leads. $89 [P&P $5] Dual Serial Board I've got one of these and can recommend it if you need an extra serial port for a modem or BBS, a serial printer, etc. It gives you 2 extra Serial Ports on a card for the A2000/3000, along with a completely compatible "serial.device" driver (ie, works with all software), and simple means of using the board. Baud rates from 110 to 115,200, along with 57,600 baud for Postscript printers, ie it's much more reliable than the Commodore serial hard & software. Uses standard cables to reduce costs. Price $399 [P&P $15] Sharp Colour Scanner: JX-320 A4 Flatbed scanner, 300 dpi, 24-bit colour output, to be used with the Professional ScanLab board plus cable and driver software (also available from us at $1259).

Ask us about other Sharp scanners as well, such as the JX-450 (A3 size, and can also scan slides) and the JX-600 (which gives a resolution of 600 dpi). Polaroid CI-3000 Film Recorder A pricey bit of hardware, but could be the basis of a good business.
