Hi -

We have a cube at home and am connected with school by a 1200 baud phone
line.  Transfers are really slow.

We want to buy a floppy drive so we can download commercial software and
tar files we put on floppies from a Sun.  I haven't seen much about
floppy drives for the NeXT lately - do they work? Who know about any
good ones, or what to look for?  Are there third party vendors for the
drives? for the floppies?  Can we do the tar file --> sun floppy -->
NeXT thing?...

Please e-mail me as I don't check into the news very often - I'll post a
summary of info if it is appropriate.

Thanks


p.s. sorry for wasted bandwidth.  It will never happen again 8^)
