Whilst in a self-induced trance, dcoward happened to blather: And I was just reading this post, and can add some wisdom as well... The *first* micro floppy was 3" in width. Yes, you heard me correctly. Amdek designed and built a SSDD 3" floppy drive around 1983-84 (or so... I'll have to look) that used it's own style of media (and it was flippy, unlike the 3.5" of today) and they interfaced it to and marketed it for two computers that I know of: The Radio Shack (Tandy) Color Computer, and The Atari 800. So far I've seen 2 Atari units for sale on the forsale newsgroups in the last 9 months or so, and altho I've never seen the CoCo version (on sale or anything) I have a color magazine ad advertising the system that I could scan in if I ever find the time... ================ Also, in the grand naming scheme above, just *what* would you call a 2" floppy? Yessireebob, a 2" floppy! I *own* one of these drives... they were used in the Zenith MiniSport 8088-based IBM/clone laptop. Cute little rascals... someday I'll take a pic or two and scan 'em in... Specs: 2" floppy, 80 Track, DSDD 720K formatted storage capacity. (I don't know the TPI or anything... may look into that if possible...) I hope this helps to enlighten folks just a little bit more... Have a Golfy Day!
