Anyone know what it does, or got a copy that works? : Adam Hill from Power maybe, if he's reading this, since it appears : that he wrote it :-) Yeah, Blitz is a disk copier made by Power Computing. It's very powerful, and comes in hardware and software components. The hardware for my version came in the form of a Power Computing PC800B disk drive, but I heard it's in the dual model as well. :) It's great as it can copy Atari ST disks, Archameedies (sorry, I know I couldn't spell that right) and PC disks. And it's fast. But doesn't have verify. I haven't found much use for it myself, but if I ever need to copy some PD it works fine. :) Stu. :)
