Hey Christian,
Thanks for the shout out! It's good to know that CBMXfer works in a VM on the Mac. I've had a few requests for a Mac version over the years but couldn't find a development environment to port to. CBMXfer is written in VB6, which is a little out of date (ok a LOT out of date, but then so is our hobby ;-) ).CBMXfer (aka CBM-Transfer) is now open source so if anyone feels like porting it to something more modern go ahead! ;-)

Hello Ruud,

I built my own zoomfloppy (similar to Jim's) and it works perfectly with my
SFD1001.
I don't know the driver version - but I built it a year ago and used the
actual drivers from this time - I never downloaded new drivers oder firmware
for the Atmega.

Also I used it with my 8250 and 8050. 500k Disks are working in the SFD1001
in the second access.
I used W7 in the past on an AMD-8-core and on my i7. It works on USB2 - I
don't know, if I tried the USB3-port.
I normally use the great CBMxfer from Steve.

Now I completely changed to Mac OS 10.11 and for some old things I have two
parallels virtual machines with W7 and XP. openCBM with CBMxfer works
perfectly in this virtual machine under W7.

PS: I will never use W8+

greets
Christian
