I was able to do this quite easily with Tim Mann's Catweasel tools and a Mitsubishi M4851 360K floppy drive. I'm using a MK4 (PCI) catweasel on an old win98...
I've been trying to get people to participate in some benchmarking of 8 bit machines. If someone could run the Ahl benchmark (or provide the original results...
Yes, the Catweasel is WELL worth the price tag for the serious collector. Tim Mann's tools for it work extremely well. I use it for all sorts of imaging, not...

... Somewhere I've got the page from the magazine one of the last times they published the resuults. If it ever turns up, I'll have to put it and the benchmark...

... Hi Mike and David, thanks for pointing me to the Catweasel; I must admit that I was not aware of the mk4; I only knew of the mk3. However, and please don't...
There currently is no such tool that I'm aware of, however I've been casually working on one. My plan is to have the disk image sent out the sound card of the...
If the drive is your problem, there is a guy on TradeMe selling old 'new stock' Teac SSSD 5.25 full heights for Apple II's for NZ$25. I have bought 6 drives...
Hi Ralf, I have just got delivery of a MK4 CatWeasel and have had a quick go at writing an image my legal copy of Super Utilities 3.2 I/III to a disk image and...
I've been playing this game both with an emulator and a TRS-80 Model 1. This is the image from the pocketstuff archive site mentioned on this list. Has anyone...
Hi Gary, Is the Trademe handle name Tigra? I see there is a full height drive there for the Apple IIe, but I'm not sure if this is the one you mean? The...

Hi Mike, I have re-imaged the original disk using the CatWeasel. The first time I imaged the disk, I have missed the fact that there are 2 sides to the game so...

That sounds right. You booted these on one side then flipped them over and ran them from the other side. One side had the tracks recorded from the inside out...
...and some more disks have been added. Also have rearranged it to make it a bit easier to find things. If a filename begins with M1 its confirmed for a model...

Thanks Gary but I don't have any luck with the trs32 emulator. If I boot PLTFALL1.DMK I get this "self copy program message" and I can't get the copy to...
