Very nice drive, with a somewhat slow helical lead screw positioner.
The Tandon TM-100-4M was also 100tpi ("M" stood for "micropolis"?)
When Tony originally wrote that FAQ, we agreed that the 100tpi was obscure
enough that it didn't need to be mentioned in the FAQ (along with things
like the AMLYN drive)
I'm having problems remembering off the top of my head, but didn't
Commodore use 100tpi drives rather than 96tpi drives for the 8050/8250
IEEE-488 drives?
Not IBM PC-compatible, but in the non-8088 world, somewhat common, n'est pas?
