—————-Applied Engineering 3.5 High Density Floppy———-External High Density 1.52mb floppy drive … Includes software, manual and
original box. This drive works fine as a standard Amiga drive as well.
SHIPPING INCLUDED ……………………. $85.00 !
Good luck selling that drive! I don't think AE will ever upgrade the
software/hardware for 2.04!
BUT!… vicious rumor has it that COMMODORE (of all people) *WILL* be
supporting the AE high density drive…
AE HD !!! Really! Hmmmm that would make alot of AE HD owners happy.

I hate to throw cold water on such a pleasant idea, but from what
CBM said to me, it's not likely to happen. HOWEVER, I DO have a driver
that I wrote myself that works under 2.0.4. The problem is that I am
currently unemployed and I want $ for it as a result.
(There is some information in the Includes & AutoDocs about a 150
RPM/High density drive, but the AE drive is a 175 RPM drive. A friend
mentioned precise speed control as the major problem with the slower speed
drives, but that got very technical very quickly and really doesn't help
solve the problem of an AE driver.)

Max;
Any chance of turning that driver into a shareware product? I have an AE
drive and would like to use under 2.04.

If I get a regular job, I will probably do that, but I doubt that
the percent return on shareware has any chance at all of paying the morgage
or feed the kids.

Send me Email and I think we can work something out.
