Yep, that is easy.....Getting the CoCo to talk FAT FAST is a bit more challenging.....but...

I am always up for the challenge.

=========================

Got tired of the long topic name!!

Why does it have to use the FAT format? Why not a format the computer can read/write easier? I know the first answer is going to be so a PC can easily read/write the SD card, but is that really necessary? Why not just write a utility to run on the (much faster/more powerful) PC to read/write the card and let the CoCo write in a fashion that it can do speedily??
