Do you know anyone who has a older computer with a 5 1/4" HD floppy
drive?
While a 64-bit Windows 7 system will not run PUTR by John Wilson from dbit,
even a 32-bit Windows XP system can do so. Since the Rainbow used an RX50
floppy drive, PUTR is able to read RX50 type media and copy the image to a
hard disk file which can then be attached to an e-mail and sent anywhere.
Please ask if you need more help.
