This was 2-3 years ago, but I suspect they still make them. Reading from the manual, the adrs is (was) SCIENTIFIC MICRO SYSTEMS 339 Nth Bernardo Ave Mountain View California 415-964-5700 We have one, but not got around to trying it (yet). The later ICM3216's had drivers in the release for this controller, so if you have access, have a gander. If not, I'm not sure if I can send you a copy. What's NSC's policy for discontinued products like this ??? There were some tools a while back called "mtools" that came over the net, that supported MESSY-DOG floppies on a unix system, which may also help. ..........................................................
