*nod*

I really like that FlashFloppy will allow the same single device to 
support both 1.44 MB and 720 kB floppies.

Aside:  I've got to say, I've never really messed with the various 
numbers associated with floppy drives, but the 1536 really surprised me.

I apparently have a lot of history to learn at some point.

Yay.

I'm messing with a machine that I can likely get the floppy drive to 
work (it's only 25 years old).  But I have exactly one other floppy 
drive and no floppy disks that I trust.  So I figured that I might as 
well convert to emulation and catch up with all the images that I'm 
using in virtualization.
