Having grown up with 1.44MB 3.5" floppies, I have a question: is it
possible to use a 1.44MB disk and just format it as a 720K disk?

As I recall you had to bulk erase the old diskette and then you could
format it as 720 - covering the 1.44 hole of course.
Not bulk erasing (the side of a Weller soldering gun works just fine)
led to erratic results. We all have Weller guns for fixing computers, eh?

Does anybody have any extra 720K (double sided, double density) 3.5"
Floppy Disks that could use a good home?
If so, please email me directly at bit...@12bitsbest.com.
