D'oh!  :<  Yes, the sort of "little detail" I'd have forgot
about -- until I found myself with an image and no place to
*put* it!!  :-/  (like going to the store to buy a piece of
pipe and forgetting to measure the O.D. before departing  :-/ )

I'll drag out my machine this weekend as I really need to sort out
*my* floppy issues.  Let me know if you have no joy with Angus.

(yes, the machine can write 3" drives, too  :> )
