Alright, it's there. http://mnemotech.ucam.org/downloads/samdsk.sit

E, I dunno The number of times I've mentioned it, and nobody seemed
interested until today!

Do it today! Upload the source if you are really in the 'helping the

I doubt it. I don't know about any Mac software which will read Sam's
native disk format.

You *might* be able to save files using KE_Disk onto a 720K FAT (PC) floppy
disk, and read those - that's what I usually do. BUT I've heard reports
that the USB SuperDrive will not read Double-density disks. Then again,
I've heard reports that that only applies to Mac DD disks and that PC DD
disks are okay.[1] So try before you buy.

>(No PC handy)

Tricky.

TD0 files are almost dead in the water - most PCs can't read those either,
these days.

For other files, I have a program (quickly hacked together in C, most of
which should be totally cross-platform except calling the Open and Save
dialogue boxes) which can transfer files to and from a .dsk image. I guess
I should upload it to mnemotech.ucam.org or somewhere...

Andrew

[1] Which would make a certain amount of sense, because Mac DD disks use a
weird position-dependant sector size which has to be supported in hardware,
wheras Mac HD disks do not,and PC disks do not.

PS. You have a very nice cat, but might I draw your attention to that fact
that sig files, by convention, are limited to four lines...

I remember that at uni, had to restore my Email folders after deleting one.

Use communicator, seems OK, but I cannot get the random sigs to work -sigh-

Yes got it last November

I guess, looks nice though :)

Yes its the older model, not quite the original, got extra graphics card memory 
:)
I put in 128MB SDRAM extra memory to speed things up though.
Its OK for web stuff, fast enough for me (runs SimCoupe nicely)

Ah, yes question - if I got a disk drive (sore point for iMAC owners), could I
retrieve stuff from original SAM disks?

Ooo, another: How do I get things like TD0 and others bits to DSK format for 
SIMCoupe?
(No PC handy)

Thanks much-ly
