RECENTLY MY COLORADO BUILT TCS-100 TAPE DRIVE FAILED. IT USES A QIC-02
INTERFACE. COLORADO SOLD THE RIGHTS TO THE DRIVE AND THE NEW COMPANY WANTS
A GOOD PIECE OF CHANGE JUST TO LOOK AT IT. I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE'S AN 
ALTERNATE WAY OF INTERFACING THE DRIVE USING A FLOPPY CONTROLLER. IF ANYBODY 
HAS ANY IDEA ON WHAT MY PROBLEM IS,OR WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A STAB DIAGNOSING 
THE PROBLEM, OR HAS A DRIVE FOR SALE, GIVE ME A YELL. I WOULD LIKE TO BE 
ABLE TO GET TO MY FAMILY'S XMAS CARD LIST.
