[CCTALK] Commodore 1541 Drive

by bob_lafleur＠technologist.com

> Also, is there any chance of making a 1541 read an Apple ][ disk? I know they both use GCR encodings for their disks, and it'd be really useful if I could read disks on my PC. I don't believe there is a way to make a 1541 read Apple ][ disks. I don't recall any programs to do this from the "old days" anyway, and if there had been a program, I'm sure I would have heard about it as I knew lots of people who had both machines, and it would have been somewhat desirable to move data between the two. - Bob

Bidding Against NASA

by dquebbeman＠acm.org

Good Morning, I think this may have come up some weeks back... But among 8-inch floppy drives and other unspecified items, NASA is buying up all the 8086 microprocessors they can lay their hands on, specifically, to keep the Space Shuttle flying. Not the more common 8088, of course, but its 16-bit big brother. Although as government agencies go, NASA doesn't have deep pockets, it certainly has deeper ones than I do. I should count my recent acquisition of the IBM 8 inch external floppy drive as a soon-to-be-rare occurance. Anyone else here ticked of that not only are they trying to keep that questionable pig flying, but they are doing it by reducing further the quantity of collectable stuff? Screw the boost in value... -dq -Douglas Hurst Quebbeman (DougQ at ixnayamspayIgLou.com) [Call me "Doug"] Surgically excise the pig-latin from my e-mail address in order to reply "The large print giveth, and the small print taketh away." -Tom Waits

Other side of the country - this is the other side of the world to me! This also acts as my test post to the new list.
