Lads,
I used to have a dial up modem plan with a max of 90MB download a month..
Now I think nothing of a 1GB download for an UPDATE to a single program or Windows (almost a daily occurrence with WIndows)
With how to get the data off your old floppies there are 2 possibilities that I can see.
Use an IDE-CF card adapter (about $4 on FleaBay) the CF card can then be read in a cheap USB-card reader.
Or there are 3 1/2” drive emulators that allow you to plug a standard USB flash card into it. (These I think are around $10-15).
Regards,
Mick
