I have to say that this attitude is not unique, I ended up designing and
have just ordered a bunch of floppy disk boards for the Acorn Atom
because a friend of mine who exhibits at retro computer fairs wanted to
load from floppies rather than SD cards. Something to do with it
actually being more retro, because though the hardware is new, it was
something that was available back when the machine was current. I asked
on the Acorn forum and he certainly wasn't the only one interested.
On the other hand I'm still working on and off on DragonMMC :) :)
Cheers.
Phill.
