 Subject: Atari Floppies
Author: Shane (216.186.152.217)

Hello,

I am getting a 130XE with a 1050 floppy but I have a problem. The XE is coming with no floppies but I found a site that has many ATR files. My problem is getting them actually onto floppies somehow. I was thinking maybe an external 5.25 drive off a PC but a) I don't know if that would actually work and b) I can't find any 5.25 drives anyway.

Also, since the XE has no software, I can't really run something like a terminal program to dial into somewhere to download the files somehow, even if I could then write these disk images to a physical 5.25. And, I don't have a modem for it anyway.

So... I'm wondering what to do... anyone out there have any suggestions?

Please email me at shane256-at-hotmail-dot-com if anyone has any ideas.
