That would probably be worthwhile. I believe the Commodore 64 fans have a
means of using a PC to simulate a hard disk for their platform. They also
have a cable and software which allows you to transfer disk images via a PC
parallel port to a C64 floppy drive. Their floppy drive is intelligent,
perhaps similiar to a UniDisk 3.5".
