Toshiba T250 & moving files

I got this and can't really help. From what I understand if you assist him so he can get the files off then he is willing to give the machine. Sorry, didn't think until now to ask where he lives. Reply to address in message below. -------- Original Message ----------- From: "Dave Bradshaw" <dave(a)fishmonger.com> I own a Toshiba T250 CPM PC that is around 17 years old. It is in excellent condition, and fully operational. It has 2 8 inch floppy diskette drives. The disk drives are high capacity, and the floppies contain 1MB of data. I have a lot of text data that I would like to move to a Windows based system. I'm looking either for an 8 inch drive that I can connect to a Windows PC, or another solution. I have never been able to locate a communications application that will wild card the file transfers, making the job way to ponderous to do one file at a time. There are literally thousands of small files. Do you know of an 8 inch drive that is compatible with a Windows PC and my high capacity 8 inch floppies. Also, if you are interested in my machine I am more than willing to part with it after I move all the data. -------- Original Message ----------- I pointed him to http://www.cpmspectre.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/cpm/cpm_faq.htm#q14 http://www.cpmspectre.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ and classiccmp.
