I don't think someone will be crazy enough to pay $150 for two SINGLE
SIDED (!) drives.

there's 8 bids. I wouldn't want to pay 75$ for a drive
either, but I'd love to have one for my unit. And also
for the Yenos I obtained recently...

If you need a floppy for your MSX, I can surely find you a brazilian
floppy controller. Just add a PC drive and a PSU. What about that?

They _are_ "720K" disks, though, and not HD, and the box of 10 I bought
for mine is all of those I have, probably. :-)

I have one of those, and the CX5 that it goes with, and some other goodies
like a cartridge that acts as a disk exerciser. That one was handy, as the
interface took a standard 34-wire ribbon cable. It's been ages since I fired
that thing up, though, and I'm not sure if it even still works. Kind of a
nifty machine, though.

I understand that the CX5 is a nice computer if you're really into the DX
series of Yamaha synthesizers. I remember seeing a CX5 in a display case
at the music store where I took piano lessons.
