Re: Friday Funnies - help



Dear Archivists,
I have a problem related to this thread of Friday Funnies.  I just
replaced my state-of-the-art IBM (vintage 1984) because I could no longer
purchase printer ribbons.  Does anyone know a method to transfer data from
the 5.25 disks to 3.5 ones or company that could do it for me?
