Re: OPD: Computer One floppy interface recreation.

Hi,

Are we still limited to 720k drives? I think I've only got 1 working one left.

Thanks

Re: OPD Messaging

Hi,

Could you expand a bit on that? I'm probably wrong, but I didn't think that the messages were transmitted quite the same as an email is. It was direct from OPD to OPD with only the phone system ( no servers etc ) in between. I was 'messaging' long before I could had a modem and could get on to ...

Re: What is a Mega OPD?

Not sure if I'm doing it wrong but can't seem to get the zip file of images to appear in my post
