I donno, that seems kinda high to me... Especially considering a pair of
ISA floppy controllers could be had for $10 ($5ea), or less.

JDR's "house brand" boards were nothing but re-badged major brand and
'cheap junk' boards. They used to peel/scrape stickers and markings off of
boards made by companies such as Adaptec, Diamond, Promise, and others
before taking photos for their catalog. I might still have some of those
old catalogs around somewhere, but I probably tossed them.
