Has anyone had any experience with BMS and the package they sell that allows
one to use a cheap IBM-PC style drive to hook to an Atari ST?  I'm
interested but would like more details about the BMS hardware and the prices
and the difficulty involved in hooking everything up (oh and what other
hardware, power supply, case, etc is needed)?  Thanks . . .

(the offer still stands - send me any information on disk drives of any type
and I'll summarize to the net)

(my 1040 internal drive will read files, programs etc alright most of the
time now, but often gives the "Drive A: not responding . . ." error when
writing to the disk - needless to say I have write protected most of my
important disks.)
