Lines: 14 Keywords: 5 1/4" DS/DD Cc: appelbau In the May issue of ANALOG there was a little note about the 3.5" disk drive. According to ANALOG ATARI scrapped the 3.5" in favor of a 5 1/4". The drive will be a DS/DD, and compatiable with the Indus, Rana, Trak, etc. Also the ADOS that was being written for the 3.5" in now being rewritten for the 5 1/4" dirve. Neil, can you confirm or deny this? Please confirm it, as a 5 1/4" DSDD drive would really add more power to my already powerful 1200XL. -- -Marc L.
