Ok - I don't need to get dumped on anymore.
Consider the idea
dropped...
Please don't just drop the idea! The catweasel requires a
handy PC (or Amiga or whatnot). There is definitely place
for something self-contained that just gathers the data
and makes it available via RS232 (or ethernet or whatever).
For a start, it means I could carry it out to the garage
and hook it up to the _heavy_ dual RX02 and read those
WT78 floppies! (OK, so some has probably done those,
but you get the idea).
Give it some simple non-volatile storage (like a PCMCIA
card etc.) and it would be quite simple to carry one off
to someone else's place and archive stuff without
having to drag a PC along.
