I dunno about Q-Emulator or QLay (I have only had limited use of these,
just playing about mainly) But QPC will definitely work with it - I've used
a similar USB device on my PC in work and QPC saw it no problem. As you say
- once the PC sees it as A: drive, QPC just mapped onto it. Same with
network drives too.
I also use only of those USB thumb drives with QPC - nice having a 64Mb
QXL.WIN file on your keyring!!!

Please respond
to ql-users
A QL Toady reader has sent me the following question. Anyone know the
answer?
"I have a laptop PC running Windows Me. I would like to run QLay (or
possibly Qemulator) on it, but it does not have a floppy disk drive.
It does have a USB port, and my local PC World store has Packard Bell
USB Floppy disks drives at about �30 - could this be accessed by a QL
emulator as an external floppy drive?"
As far as I know, as long as the floppy drive is seen by the PC as
drive A: it should work, but does anyone have any info on this I could
pass on to him?
