I have a person wanting to send me a large amount of text that he has on
a Commadore 8023 system. I've got a kaypro 4 which can read 30 or 40
different floppy formats but not Commadore's.
I know nothing at all about Commadores and he knows nothing at all about
modems and file transfers. I have a modem I can loan him so any of the
following solutions would work:
1. Find a modem program for his machine and phone the data to me. He says
that his BASIC is the same as the 64's but I don't know what is under the
hood in the 8023 and haven't seen any modem programs go by for it.
2. Find a way to read his floppies. A kaypro dealer said it couldn't be
done and a Commadore dealer said "whaddaya wanta do that for.."
Any help or hints would be appreciated.
