It stopped spinning up, and I was just joking about sending the
drive. I'm not actually sure I still have the drive or if I tossed
it, but I still have a small pile of fubar drives. I think I remember
some deal from DAK that came with WordStar Professional and other
bundled software. I recall one of those holographic labels stuck to the
DOS manual that said "Firenze" or "Firense," but I can't be sure of the
version. My usually excellent memory is just a bit hazy on things back
then. It was amazing what could be stuffed onto a 25 meg drive back in
those days, though. For some odd reason, easier to operate, too.
