Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I have an old Pentium 3 ATX that I use exclusively for DOS.

Its ideal, because its about the most recent motherboard that still has all the old original DOS features in both hardware and BIOS, such as IDE bus and a parallel printer port plus RS232. But it also has several more recent features like USB ports, solid state hard drive, and decent graphics.
A 5 1/4 floppy will plug straight in to that when I finally get one.

Just blew my piggy bank on an old HP spectrum analyser, so the big floppy drive project will have to remain on my wish list for a while.
Cheers,  Tony.
