Thanks to those who responded to my query about >81 track disk
drives.  I'm currently debating if the track indicator is worth
the extra $50.00 on a GTS-100.  (but oh how I love little
flashing lights! :)  I'll probably end up getting the 1st Stop
drive kit.  IF ANYONE HAS HAD ANY TROUBLE WITH THESE *PLEASE*
LET ME KNOW.

As for the floppy de-fragger.....it's a little silly to bother
with.  But if you insist why not just copy all the files to
another freshly formatted disk?  It's as easy as any other
solution.  It's only  800K for pete's sake!
