Subject: Re: Making a 3.5" Beeb floppy drive

Some people say 'bulk' standard, some 'bog' standard, and apprently some say
'box' standard.

I believe 'bog' standard is acceptable English.

Arrrghhhh "Box Standard" as in "straight out of the box"

Sorry, nothing personal meant, just made me scream out loud!
 
Oh and don't forget you'll need DNFS 1.21 (available from www.mdfs.net) if
you are to use it on a BBC.
