Lines: 11 Has anyone successfully installed a 1.44MB 3.5" floppy into an XT class computer? I suspect it is possible with a controller designed to run a 1.2 MB flopper for the XT and one of the new drives and maybe DOS 3.2, but I havent heard of any success yet. This hardware would cost about $195 here in Silicon Valley. B< odyssey@unix.sri.com hplabs!sri-unix!orawest!brian *** Generic clever signature ***
