I have *a* GCR CP/M disk. I will have to see what version it is. I

have a C-128 - the later (AFAIK) model with the built-in disk drive.
Since I haven't fired it up yet and since the previous owner did a
number on the innards with crappy wire and crappier solder joints (got
it from a kid who lived 5 minutes from Hara Arena), that will be a long,
slow path. A real 1541 and an X1541 cable is something I could do in
the forseeable future.

I have copies of both the boot disk and second utility disk that I
could bang out . . . . and I was just about to tear down the 128 setup
and play Amiga 2000 for awhile.
Montiros redux: The 1902 and 1080 are the same basic guts/styling, but
the 1080 has analog RGB inputs as well as the digital CGA inputs. ISTR
the 1802 is composite video only like the 1702.
FYI, I have a pretty extensive book collection on the 64, VIC and 1541
drives. I can look up/copy key pages if you have further questions.

No, regrettably, I have nothing for Commodore.
Oops, then let me say instead that anyone who's got this disk should
consider sending it to Don ;)
