Well, I have the Exatron Stingy Floppy adverts on the back of (and
inside?) several issues of 80 Microcomputing which I could attempt to
photograph with my (cheap) webcam, if anyone is interested?
No newsletters though :(
I have some of these materials if anyone is interested in PDF
scans. Contact me directly and specify which issue of 80 Microcomputing
and/or Newsletter (I have only the first @LOAD, the newsletter's name). I
am presently working on a new drive belt replacement. I have found a
vendor to make the belts and hope to get them in early January. It seems
that every stringy floppy that I have come upon has a dried-up drive belt,
making the drives useless. Before my last belt died, I was able to take a
few pictures of a successful load:
