Fairlight-CMI

Hi all,

I've woken my IIx from its peaceful slumber just a few weeks ago and 
luckily it's in good working order. Now that it's back in the studio 
setup again I would like to dig in again. 
 
- As the IIx is supposed to be able to boot OS-9 does anyone have 
this on 8"? I'm specifically looking for assembler/compiler stuff to 
really dig into the machine. The service manual mentions a QDOS 
version but that one seems to be even more rare. I've contacted Blue 
Weaver (most probably the original owner of my machine) and he 
mentioned he used to program it using OS9. And Greg Holmes mentions 
on his pages that he spent time disassembling, so something must be 
out there. 

- Has anyone ever seen the Q077/Q087 harddisk controller? Someone 
mentioned that the Q777 SCSI would also work. Has anyone ever tried 
this?

- Has anyone got 2 Q256 cards in their IIx? If so, what does it do? 
Does it expand sequence memory?

Cheers, 
Patrick
