Thomas,

I have DOS 3.30A but I don't know if it is any good.  You see, it's on
5.25" floppy, and it has been so long since I used the 5.25" drive that
it's not working.  I just vacuumed it yesterday, got an additional dust
bunny out of it today, and used drive cleaner diskette multiple times,
and it still doesn't work.  I really don't feel like cracking the case
today.

However, if my son's 5.25" drive works, he has the same utilities I have
to revive old diskettes, etc.  And he can do his best & copy over to
3.5" so I can make it available ... if the data is still there.

It will be a couple of days before I can let you know ...

l.d.
