Subject: Want disk drive for Amstrad.
The computer I am talking about is an Amstrad Personal Computer
Word Processor, Model PCW8256. This is actually a CP/M machine,
i.e. 8-bit, which uses a proprietary 3-inch diskette (as opposed to
3.5 inch). I bought mine when Sears Roebuck ran a sale a few years ago,
selling them as word processors running Locomotive software, not as
general purpose computers.
I desire to buy the second or "B" drive.
I also might like to acquire the interface which allows the
computer to talk to a modem. I know that such a thing exists, but I do
not have the model name or number.
Also, if anyone knows if the Locomotive software is available
for other (more modern) computers, please let me know. Or, if you have
suggestions for a different newsgroup to post this in, let me know that
also.
