Hey folks: I'm trying to decide on a flopy drive for my cube. I'm trying to choose between DIT's Cube Floppy 2.9 and PLI's SuperFloppy 2.8 DIT's product is priced $110 higher if purchased through NeXTConnection. I read the article in the March/April edition of NextWorld which seems to indicate that the both feature very similar capabilities. The blurb in the NeXTConnection ad said that PLI's product gives you "the hardware compatability" to read most formats (Unix, MS_DOS, MAC,etc). Is a dubious phrase. I.e. do I need additional software to achive these capabilities on PLI's product which is what DIT's FloppyWorks software provides? Any other information I should consider is appreciated. Any personal experiences with either of these products (or others) is most welcome. Thanks, Keith ****************************************************************** * * * THIS SPACE FOR RENT * * * ******************************************************************
