Hi All --
   A friend of mine just bought a used "H-89" computer (a
Heathkit) that runs some form of CP/M.  I'd like to give
him some PD software, but this machine runs hard-sectored
5.25" diskettes.  Is there an efficient way to do it?  I
can read and write many 5.25" formats -- can a hard sector
controller read anything but hard sector diskettes??  I can
always do a serial patch between one of my machines and his,
but that seems like "the hard way".  Any hard-sector users
out there??  How do you get software??
