I'm looking for about 10 of them...
Since I found out how to hook up the 1541 to my computer, that's all I

Why don't you record the "head banging" of the 1541 drive, that brings
back a lot of memories...
I formatted the disk with OpenCBM and I forgot how much noise it makes,
thought the drive was in a self destruct mode...
