Actually, I may be able to transfer via floppy disk, as I have an OPD
disk interface (How cool is that? I even have the manuals!) - it plugs
into the ROM pack. The one unknown at this time is what format the
floppy is written in; but since it at least takes the same drives as the
QL, it should be possible to read one way or another. Unlike Commodore's
damn GCR format.

Cheers,
Ade.
