Well, sort of a newb. I used to own a 5150 a few years back along with a pile of old XT/AT clones, etc. But had to give all that up and live with just 1 new computer for the last 5 or 6 years due to tiny apartment syndrome.
Now I have a house to fill with vintage junk and I already have 2 5150's with a 5160 possibly on the way. It's amazing all the info I've sort of forgotten about. ISA, MFM, all that old computer jargon.
My question is this; how can I transfer data from my new "internet age" PC back to my old dinosaurs? I love downloading old programs/OS's/Games etc. from the internet but I have no way to get them onto 5.25 floppies! My current PC (not to mention windows) won't support it. Just wondering what you guys do?
