Hi All
I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks. Time to speak up and ask my
question.
I was just given an Apple IIe setup which includes a load of expansion
cards and a pair of Disk II 5.25" floppy drives.
The computer has been in a factory for a few years so is pretty grimy.
I'd like to give the Disk II's heads a clean before I put any disks in
there.
Anyone know where I can get a 5.25" floppy drive head cleaner? I only
seem to be able to find 3.5" ones online. I'm in the UK if it makes a
difference.
If not, can anyone recommend an alternative (cotton swabs, isopropyl
alcohol, something completely different?
Next step will be to get hold of some boot disks for the thing :-)
cheers
