What do i have here?
Hi Everyone
WARNING: Likely oversized very detailed images included. I found this recently in a box at the back of other Amiga related items. Quite simply, i have NO idea what it is. I took the casing off but still can't work it out. Any ideas? Thank you. |

That would be a commerical product?
This feels hand made. There's some type of on/off switch on one side, and one of those "pot tuners like sound samplers use" on the other side... I don't even know which end to connect to an Amiga haha |

So it's a sophisticated floppy disk copier, the best one? Re Jim:
Which was a disk copier/imager commonly used with EMPLANT, my Mac emulation). SYBIL's software was fully completed, and it can write back Amiga, Mac, Amax, IBM, and Atari ST disks (protected or not). It requires a hardware copier in order to duplicate long tracks and exact length tracks. Last edited by zipper; 10 March 2021 at 20:12. |
