Well, the project is (slowly) moving along. Stephen Brunier (from
Micol) sent me some disks to test and a manual for MAB GS version 4.
Of the disks, I have a working MAB 4.2 GS version. The other version
was MAB GS 5.0 but the 'master' disk was stored on a 3.5" HD floppy
which won't read on my GS. Currently my only option is to find someone
who has little to no difficulty reading these type of disks on a GS
and hope they have some luck.
I'd be willing to try to recover the disk. I can be reached by email.
I know your success rate with 5.25 disks is phenomenal but this is a
3.5" HD. What do you think the odds are of success?
IME, these disks are hard to recover anything from when written on Apple
800k drives (my assumption since all other 3.5 disks from same source
are DD). I think this is why it may take one of those lucky folks who
have bragged about their luck with such HD floppies.
Cheers,
Mike T.
