There is also the SMSC USB97CFDC2 floppy usb controller. Al has the datasheet archived on bitsavers: http://www.bitsavers.org/components/standardMicrosystems/_dataSheets/USB97CFDC2-01.pdf What more could you ask for--legacy floppy interface, external flash programming... I'm a bit surprised that nobody's come up with a design using this creature. Of course, there's the possibility that they're unobtainium... --Chuck
