Matthieu, Montana Design will be reviving the "PIC to IDE" contest that was sponsored a while ago. I haven't updated the web site (www.montanadesign.com) yet, but it will be substantially identical to what was previously offered on the PIC list. The big change is that the hard drive will be a 40 Gig one now, and I will make available circuit boards (and schematic of course) to make it easier on the contestants.
