Path: ns-mx!uunet!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!qt.cs.utexas.edu!yale.edu!cmcl2!adm!smoke!abc From: abc@smoke.brl.mil (Brinton Cooper) Newsgroups: comp.sys.apple2 Subject: IIe Floppy Drive Info Needed Keywords: IIe, 5.25" floppy disk drive Message-ID: <16916@smoke.brl.mil> Date: 1 Aug 91 01:44:59 GMT Organization: The Ballistic Research Laboratory Lines: 69 Folks, Two of us need replacement floppy (5.25") disk drives for Apple IIe machines (remember them?). The ads in A+/InCider have yielded the following list. (There are duplicates on this list. Also, I'm not surwe that a few of the products work on a IIe.) We solicit your comments about the reliability and quality of any of these products and about whether the vendor can be trusted. Basically, we don't want to fool around with a cheap product that won't work without bother for a fairly long time. I'd prefer e-mail <abc@brl.mil> but will try to read the news if that's more convenient for any of you. Thanks, _Brint Cooper (A long time ago, info-apple-request@brl.mil.
