Nice.. except the Fudge-Itsu.. er.. Fujitsu M2613ET is 120MB native. I tried
to HDInit one and it came up as "0MB". Weird.
If you want scans from my 2613 and the Conner, I can set the Master up at
some point this weekend and fish them out for you. I've also got an 80MB IBM
here - WDA-L80 or something like that. ISTR that worked fine, too, but I
can't remember what the formatted capacity was.

Does anyone know of any decent text editors for the Master? ROM based or
soft-loaded, I don't care which. I wanted to play with the Lancaster 65C02
Assembler, but the text editors I've tried were pretty naff :-/
Speaking of the assembler - I've got an Impression version of the manual that
I threw together in a couple of hours. If anyone wants a copy, let me know.
The Lancaster assembler, BTW, is the one Alan Phillips wrote at Lancaster
University back in 1987.

Later.
