drive as storage for the QL - useful for backups at least - no need for a
QL emulator and all the header info etc was automatically stored and
retrieved when you tried to copy files back from the PC to the QL.
Would be useful still for people with basic QLs (with Hermes / SuperHermes
of course) who can't find a miracle hard disk and don't want to put the QL
in a case... (unless someone knows of a source of external hard disks that
can work with QubIDE??)
I use a ROMDisq in this situation, though a new 128MB ROMDisq would solve the problem.
Yes it would - however, are people willing to pay for a big ROMDisq - doubt it.... Most QLers do not spend money on their machines anymore
Would be interesting to know what the last QL related item was that people on the list bought and how long ago it was...
Mine was probably QPC2 some 3 years ago !! (the shame of it all)
