Re: Anyone have any info on the PEDISK II floppy controller?

I kinda thought that would get your attention if you weren't already aware
of it ;-)

Might be worth while to drop Dave a line asking what supporting
firmware/software/documentation he has for both the Z-RAM and the PEDISK;
maybe we could even talk him into lending them in case someone feels up to
cloning one or both of them...

I've been interested myself in that PEDISK board and software; I've got one
of the early 8032s with slots for two floppy drives in the case and I
thought it'd be neat  to put a couple of functional 3.5" drives in there
(they're logically equivalent to 8" drives):

I've been hoping to get together with Dave for a few years now but it's a
bit of a long drive from here and he rarely passes through Toronto, but you
never know...
