As does the Commodore Colt. I got a drive for mine from a 20Mb
Hard Card (of later manufacture).
No doubt the connecting thread is that they had a room full of them
and so they added the control port to the chip used for the A590/A2091
to use them up. I think some A590s shipped with XT-IDE drives, but
I don't think they even populated the connector on the A2091 (but I
did, to play with it).
