Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

I took the (Samsung) floppy drive from an unused 2 year old PC. It is
a standard modern drive and I think that any would work.

The instructions on how to make the cable are on the
www.buchty.net/casio site. They're very detailed and you can rely on
them completely but I agree that they can be a bit confusing. For
practical purposes a actual picture of the cable would be better, I'll
take one as soon as I get my FZ-1 from the top of the closet where it
sits now. (it's a very time-demanding instrument, I'm very limited in
time so I tend to play with more immediate stuff)
