A few years ago I was using an Osborne I and then graduated to an
Osborne Executive (it came w/ UCSD Pascal).  I (reluctantly) moved all
my computing to MS-Dos about 4 years back.  
Well, this isn't alt.folklore.computers, so on to my question:  

I recently needed to access some of my data from my Osborne I days, and 
found (actually remembered) that Media Master and Uniform will not read
single density disks.  I presume that this is a hardware limitation of 
the *BM drive.  Can anyone give me any info on how to read my ancient 
manuscripts?
