Shure ? I had the feeling an Disk ][ drive could write and
almost anything including a Bierfilzl - I had (or better
still have) more than 1200 A2 Disks, most of them 'double'
sided and only one time a read error - and this disk was
one of the single siders (I still can go mad about that
Disk - I lost the result of a 2 days and nights programming
session (not to mention I lost also money, since the deadline
had to be changed).
I guess most of the disks are still readable - at least when
ever I power up my A2 I can start what ever I want.
