Yeah, my wording was _really_ unclear. I know the 1541 is
single-sided, I meant "Can I use standard PC DSDD media?"
I have heard of MFM disk tools for Commodores (Big
Blue Reader) but I
have never used one. I've always resorted to serial transfer between
Commies and PeeCees (that and archiving 1541/4040 disks with a 1541
and an X1541 cable over a PeeCee parallel port under DOS).
So the X1541 cable works, huh? I may have to do some soldering.
