Yep, but the possibility of reading 1.44MB floppies on MSX is very
interesting, don�t you think, by using an LS drive?
I know that Henrik Gilvad was testing some LS drives, but I dunno how
far he explored this area? That was quite far ago.
What about the compatibility between the disks. i think of PC/MSX format
are you also working on that. If I�m not wrong the MEGASCSI interface
has some kind of feature that can format ZIPs so they are readable on
PC�s, if I�m not wrong???

What about making a list of these which work and put to The Ultimate
MSX-FAQ?
To ppl. who own a working CD-ROM drive (together with IDE) interface:
Please mail any information of what kind of cd-rom drive you�re using!
>PS. Some MSX IDE stuff can be found via: http://www.faq.msxnet.org and
>search for the IDE chapter
:-) I see that that the FAQ I started once gets more and more popular!!
Great to hear that ! Thanx to (Quintus aka manuel Bilderbeek) it expands
quite rapidly....
BTW ofcourse I have seen the IDE chapter :-), but thanx for the info
anyway 8-)
Greetings from gabriel aka The Red Devil
