..Norway that is. Now, I don't consider myself to be a collector of vintage hardware, I only own two vintage computers, a C64 and a Kontiki 100, I have no intention of getting more and I don't find using old software to be very interesting.
I do however find it quite fun to program these old things, which is how I ended up here. 
My current quest is to write a demo for the Tiki 100, with the current sub-quest being to upgrade it first, preferably to two drives supporting the Tiki 800k format so I can store a sensible amount of data. Unfortunately I only have one potential candidate drive so far, a Teac FD55GFR, and my attempts to use that for the Tiki hasn't worked out yet. Does seem to be quite a lot of know-how around here though, so maybe someone will be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong. (or that what I'm trying to do can't be done and that I should instead focus on trying to find the correct kind of drive, which according to the documentation would be an FD55F).
