I've never seen one with a 1.2Mb drive, but I'll believe you :) Actually there should be a lot of APC III's turning up around the place. A *LOT* of APC III's were sold to pharamcy's to run a specifc software package that was supplied with the machine. I have a stack of the catalog update disks for that software in APC III format. It seems though that the company (Scribe?) has stopped supporting that APC III format as several pharmacies in the area have cut over from their aging APC III's to new PC's. I haven't bothered to check if the APC III is sitting in the bin at the back though...
