It looks like you don’t have 5.25 disks and 3.5 drives :)

Warm greetings, Slava!

Well, it depends on what kind of normal ones - Verbatim with Teflon coating 6 rubles.

Or maybe it’s not worth reinventing the wheel? They made GMX for Scorp (though I still don’t know what capabilities it gives in terms of graphics), Sprinter
they did something unimaginable there.

2All - can someone tell me what GMX gives for graphics?

With respect, Roman aka Megus of BrainWave association.

From Tarasov Oleg To All 1 April 1998

Pardon me! And what??? Is it more convenient to scribble or roll it into a tube??

Please be so kind as to explain it to a dark person... ;+)

Just don’t get caught up in the fact that they often fly out, this
is only true on a pussy and not on a Sinclair...
I speak with confidence since I’ve had 3.5 for two years already...

For this I say goodbye, Oleg.

I don’t believe it ;-) It still gives something and I would like to get from someone a
description of GMX (it would be very nice if from Zonov himself)

And, how can I say this, in general, their latch quickly becomes loose (erased)

Well, especially left-handed discs (GMD) are even difficult to insert and remove.
And when the stickers to the disc do not stick well, then sometimes the disc without
the sticker is pulled out. And with a bent disk you can easily turn your head off.

Yes? But on some left-handed 5.25 floppy disks the disk is poorly cooked! But on
3.5 there is no such thing!

But at 5`25 you can see when the floppy disk is bent or the sticker is bad.
The 3-inch one looks quite normal. And it doesn’t even jam on all drives.
