You just make me remember that I received a LAFUMAT disk interface for 
my Dragon and need to test it! So much to do on so little time...

==============================

Those should be CoCo compatible -- at least with a proper CoCo DECB 
chip. They look to be new manufacture, or are they new old stock? If 
they are new, where did you get them?  I wonder if the 2797 is HD 
compatible, or if a HD compatible chip could be used in a CoCo 
controller? Would be nice since HD drives are the only easy ones to find 
now. DECB couldn't use the full capacity, but OS-9 could. You have to 
admit, even just using a fraction of the full capacity is better than no 
disk at all!
