We're sorry, this answer were written by a japanese friend of mine, and he
explained what is this LS120 drive. He apologizes for this portuguese
answer, but he says he is a bit ill, and give a very short answer, only to
give an idea of what is this LS120.
The above answer is in Portuguese, the language spoken in Brazil (not
Spanish!), and if I asked, it's because I didn't know what is it.

Ok! Next time it will be a private e-mail.
But take it easy! Some time ago (2 years) many people answered e-mails in
dutch, and I never complained about it! Of course, English is the official
language of this list, we don't want to discuss about it (we simply agree,
and that's all)
> Ok, If I'm correct LS120 is a FDC (Floppy Disc Controller)???
He said it's some kind of special disk drive, that can handle 120Mb disks
(not zipdisks) and standard 3.5" disks (including 720kb and 1.44Mb).
Greetings from Brazil!
