Hi,
up for sale is a Individual Computers Catweasel MK III "Flipper" floppy controller including a genuine NOS Commodore 8580R5 SID sound chip.
It is called "Flipper" because it is a combined PCI / Zorro II / A 1200 clockport device.
As a PCI device, it can be used in a PCI equipped PC/Mac or even Amiga (as long as the PCI bridge supports the openpci.library). It enables you to
Flipped over with the bracket turned by 180°, it can be used to connect a standard PC floppy drive to any Amiga with Zorro slots. Using the Catweasel and it's multidisk.device, you can then read and write a multitude of disk formats on your Amiga.
And finally, it can be used in an A1200 by connecting it to the clockport (cable is not included but can be obtained from Individual Computers.)
To be honest, after buying it from its previous owner, I never came around to using this card. Maybe someone else can put it to better use. It comes with original packaging, short English manual, and a CD the previous owner burned some drivers to. These are freely available, e.g., on aminet.

Asking 199 EUR + shipping + 3% Paypal fees (or Paypal friends and family)

In case you are interested, please state your interest in this thread and - per Amibay rules - send me a PM.
Thank you,
Torsten
