1. Larken Disk drive on Ebay

Hi all, saw this on Ebay so I thought I would post to group.  Someone 
is auctioning off a Larken disk drive with some software and 2 floppy 
drives.

Maybe someone from the group is interested?

Hello Luke,

Hi Abed, to answer your question most if not all of
the TS2068 software I have is in Oliger format, so
unless someone had the Oliger drive setup it would be
of no use.  I do have a lot of stuff on cassette but
that would obviously mean making duplicates and that
is a lot of work and to be honest I do not know if
many people are still using their tape drives to load
software anymore?

But I am always willing to help someone looking for
something specific so you can pass along my email for
any requests.  I have not pulled out most of my stuff
since my move but this would give me an excuse to.

I am also copying Les on this email.
