From: Dan Blumenfeld <DAN@Mit-Ml> The initial FDC survey responses have been tabulated and are available in the file MC:CPM;S100DC SURVEY. If anyone finds any errors in the FDC specs, please send me a note so that I can correct it. Also, if you're using an S-100 FDC which has NOT been included in the survey, I'd be interested in hearing about it. So far, no information has been collected on Cromemco's 4FDC and 16FDC, Micromation's Disk Controller, or Wameco's FDC-1. The information concerning reliability and documentation quality, etc . was taken from comments included in the FDC responses. The "Integration" entry indicates the relative complexity of initially bringing-up the FDC in an S-100 system. I'd also like to express my thanks and appreciation to all the people who responded to this survey. Dan
