Subject: Re: 3.25" diskettes
I can't speak for 3.25, but Amdek made (or at
least packaged) 3" floppy
drives/disks for at the very least the Tandy Color Computer. If I'm not
mistaken (which entirely could be) they were 'electrically compatible'
with standard (read: IBMish) 5.25" drives. Also IIRC (tho this very well
could be wrong) Tony at least once mentioned they were available for a UK
machine... Beeb? Acorn? I *think* Acorn, but don't quote me on that.
Amstrad CPC's used 3" diskettes (180kb capacity).
cheers,
Lance
