I've read about this before but it all appears to be working now.
Impressive achievement, I feel.

I've been following this ever since the first mention of it, it is a most
impressive piece of work. I could swear that at one time there was mention
of "Individual Computers" (they make the Catweasel boards) producing the
Minimig, does anyone know anything about this?
What suprised me was that he has a link on his page to a project that I find
even more interesting, and that I've not heard of (well, that part isn't so
suprising). The 1541-III http://jderogee.tripod.com/ is a replacement for
the 1541 using MMC/SD cards. It looks pretty cool.

New subject: Mystery tape drive
Can anyone here identify the tape drives in this picture?

They do not belong with the SAGE DMC console in the picture. They
resemble the drives with the Philco 2000 system in this picture:

...but they're not an exact match. Any ideas?

No, but I believe that is the Columbo film where he was at MITS. (I forget what MITS stood
for).
I don't think there are any other Columbo films with computers in them. There is one
or two with electronic typewriters though.
Yes, I have seen lots of Columbo's (about 40).

Should we assume they are IBM because they are blue?
