Thanks Guys,
Now I'm intimidated (-:
Just kidding....that's useful stuff Fred. Thanks for taking the time to
type all that out.
I'll give it a go...and see what I can see. If anything it's a good excuse
for me to wire the drive up. I'd like to image those Panasonic disks one
day for posterity and at least I should be able to do that.
Chuck, in the highly likely event of the formats NOT being common CP/M or
DOS ones (i.e. ones I could probably manage), I'll give these guys your
email (-:
Cheers
Terry (Tez)
