He's just picked up a Technomatic double 3.5" double sided disk drive (that's two double sided drives in one box!) for a paltry sum and wants to know if he can get it working on his 520ST. It's rigged up for a BBC Microcomputer (one of those strange things UK educational establishments favour) so it needs conversion but I imagine it"s probably pretty standard IBM type. I figure there must have been articles published on such conversions (I know there has been such an article for the Amiga) - anyone got any ideas? Thanks in advance, - m a r c u s - (ex info-atari8 subscriber, now i-amiga subscriber - no flames pleeeeeease!) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= marcus@uk.ac.pcl.stoat - JANET "The streets are crammed with marcus%stoat.pcl.ac.uk@ukacrl - BITNET/EARN things, eager to be held..." -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
