Hewwo, all. I was wondering. I would love to make a robot (any kind or type) that has an on board 3.5 floppy drive to use "removeable/replacable" programs on floppy disk. Is there a way to do this and would it be an effective way of controlling a bot? Thanks for your help. =^.^=

I know this is not what you want but it is fun nevertheless.... a very good use for those un used floppy drives 3 1/2

you could perhaps do it with linux running off a rom chip on a small motherboard, but the chance of powering that is difficult. I have no idea really - but liked the title of your message! Might be easier to use some other sort of memory.
