It is the idea of playing with the CP/M system again, and maybe moving some of the software to my Linux system that is tempting. Then again, I should probably archive all the 5-1/4" floppies while I still have a drive that reads them. I have so 5-1/4" 96tpi double-density drives and floppies. I guess I could teach Linux to read the floppies in a 5-1/4" high-density drive. (Data rate of a 360K floppy but the track spacing of a 1.2M floppy - the same format as a 720k 3-1/2" floppy.)
