[Cialug] OT request

[Don Cady]

Dave- Yes, Al does. He wants to get an old Kaypro running for some kind of 
homebrew-fun-hobby-project. It's only got 5-1/4" drives, but he plans to 
"patch in an 8in. to convert a copy".
Anyway, you're in Ames, right? I relayed all this info, and he responded 
that he's going to try and connect with Dan first, as he's closer (and met 
him through the CUG before).
Do you mind if I pass on your email if Dan doesn't end up having everything 
he needs?

Everyone else- Thank you for your helpful responses.

Thanks,
Don
