i was talking to my manager who is just about ready to give me a complete and
working trs80 model 1 with ALL accessories. he also said he used something
called a stringy floppy with it which used a loop of string/wire to save data
with not quite the speed of floppies but certainly faster than cassette. has
anyone seen these or can explain how they work? he said there were carts that
were put into the drive so it seems to be a removeable media device? can
anyone explain further?
