[Ham-Computers] 1.44 FLOPPY?

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Find somebody locally, such as a Ham, with a computer having a 3.5 inch 1.44 
Meg drive and a CD burner. Pay them a few bucks to copy the diskettes to the 
CD.

If you can not find a Ham locally, try the high school in your district. 
Many times a student in a Computer Science class is more than happy to help 
somebody else out. Many of these kids know five times what the instructor 
does, so do not be frightened off by their age. Now if you say RAM chip and 
he asks what doctor you went to for surgery ... Find another one!
