Mitsumi and Epson floppy drives are junk.
I
dunno... I've had a 7-year-old Mitsumi on my CoCo for... well... 7 years
or so, it seems to be running fine... OS-9 loves that 80-tracks!!!
Teac is just o. k.
Never had a Teac fail,
either.
The chassis is not as rugged (I can crush one in
my hands) and not precise as I like when fitting parts into it and
very scary sharp edges.
definately true-- just assembled one of them (that's what they wanted...)
Had to be careful to not cut myself.
Aceropen stuff is not too bad
Uh, really? Last I knew, Aceropen was a division of Acer, which everything
I've seen is some of the nastiest junk in the world (read: worse than
Packard Bell)...
Just my $0.00002,
Roger "Merch" Merchberger
