Here's a useful tool I dug up whilst acquainting myself with the Commadore Amiga community recently. Available in 2 versions, one for ISA and one for PCI, it's a custom controller board that allows one PC floppy drive to read any number of weird any number of wierd and wonderful floppy disk types.
http://www.jschoenfeld.com/products/catweasel_e.htm http://www.jschoenfeld.com/products/cwmk3_e.htm This seems, for the first time, to be a device that allows you to read Mac 800k disks on a PC, as well as the 1.4MB disks. It also reads many other formats. No attachment to the company, just a curious nota. However I do have one of John Schoenfeld's boards in my A1200 (IDEFix 97) and it's a very tidy piece of engineering. This guy/company obviously knows a thing or two about custom electronics! -- Mark Benson AIM - SilValleyPirate Visit FlatPackMacs online: <http://fpm.gotdns.com> Visit my Homepage: <http://homepage.mac.com/markbenson> "Never send a human to do a machine's job." -The Matrix -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
