Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me with a query from an ST owning son
of one of my work colleagues? He's just picked up a Technomatic double 3.5"
double sided disk drive (that's two double sided drives in one box!) for
a paltry sum and wants to know if he can get it working on his 520ST. It's
rigged up for a BBC Microcomputer (one of those strange things UK educational
establishments favour) so it needs conversion but I imagine it"s probably
pretty standard IBM type. I figure there must have been articles published
on such conversions (I know there has been such an article for the Amiga)
- anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

							- m a r c u s -

(ex info-atari8 subscriber, now i-amiga subscriber - no flames pleeeeeease!)
