Bjarne,
Oswego Software (Oswego, Ilinois, USA) markets a product
that allows a PC to read and write on HP formatted floppies.
Kevin Becker at Phoenix Flow could offer more information on
this product and its applications. I have taken a more direct
route and have networked my PC to the HP (as well as a number
of other computers) through the use of a product called PC/TCP
marketed by FTP Software in North Andover, Mass., USA (Phone
number is 508-685-3300). It offers many of the features of the
TCP/IP protocol and allows me access to the internet from my PC
as well as the capacity to transfer data to and from any other
computer on my network that has the TCP/IP capability. (Do keep
in mind that this requires FACSNet or something similar on HP) The
software is reasonably priced (about $400 US) and supports a
variety of network cards (we use the Etherlink II from 3COM,
about $150 US). I mainly make use of the FTP features for data
transfer and have been very happy with this setup. I can offer
more details if anyone is interested. Please contact me directly
(kelley@mrc.com) and in the event of sufficient interest I can
post to the network.
