Not much accomplished today. I got the doc appointment moved to tomorrow morning. My sister will come pick me up in the morning and take me there, Afterward I'll call her and have her pick me up from the docs office and we'll go grocery shopping. It won't be much. Between my food stamps and what little I have left from my SSI I'll have about $78 to do my shopping with.
Today I made a special disk drive to test computers with. It's a drive controller card with an SDFloppy disk drive emulator attached via a pigtail cable. The SD card in the emulator contains all the test and diagnostic software I need. The card holds the equivalent of sixteen floppy disks of programs. Since I have two of these SDFloppy emulators (one from my niece, the other from my sister) I put one on my //e to save information to SD cards for archive storage and the other to create an aid in my tech work.
My friend with the IIc came by to get the disk drive I modified recently. He seems very happy with it.
