What kind of problems are you guys having?  The docs say that OmniFlop 
doesn't work with laptops not having internal floppy controllers.  So USB 
floppy drives are not supported right now.  I haven't had any problems at 
all on my desktop PC.  I use Windows XP and OmniFlop can read/write/format 
CoCo floppy disks of all sorts, single- and double-sided.

Please go through the listbox and notice how many CoCo formats there 
are.  I don't know why the author lists these formats under so many name 
variations, but keep trying all of them until one works.
