while we're on the topic,

isn't it fairly easy now to add an index hole sensor to a 1541?

Joe, do you have these, or could make them?

my 1571 does -not- work with nibtools, I have no idea why.
I even swapped in jiffydos chip I just got from Jim yesterday, still
doesn't work.

it fails the cable test, even though I use the exact same cables on
the 1541 and that works.

very weird.

Dan.
