Re: 2.4Mb floppies?

You are absolutely right. The Sirius had 2 x 1.2Gb double sided drives. It had variable speed RW which was used by Chuck Peddle in the design. The drives were made by Jugi Tandon. 2.4Mb was the total system capacity, maybe this was a mistake when the story was submitted. How do I know? Well I am "Isabelle".
