Re: Floppy disc images

Jordan,

It is good policy to keep old hardware for reading old media. In my
case, my old DOS machine died some time ago (a battery-related failure
that proved unrecoverable), and I managed to find a computer that I had
saved that could run Win 2000 in order to attach it to the network and
had ISA card slots for legacy cards. I moved my old hard disk and
floppies to it, and I am a happy camper now.


Best regards,
