What type of drive do you need? SCSI? MFM? I have a 40meg MFM I can put
on indefinite loan if it's useful.  Not much, but it might help.

Er, for general interest, what type of development is going on right
now, and what areas are you looking for help in?

None of us have.  Especially after taking the Subject GRE in CompSci.
It was a theoretical nightmare.  I thought I was taking the wrong test

is rolling over in his grave right now: "what damnation have I wrought
eternal on humanity?"
