A "demo" running directly on a 1571 floppy drive.

This made the rounds earlier this week; a demo with video and sound, running on a disconnected 1571 drive.

Wasn't that guy on the Calendar episode of the IT crowd?

I think it’s a 1541-II

IMHO it is indeed. Just wonder if I saw it correct: did this guy cut the cable while the drive was still powered up? Tricky, you never know.

But I must admit: impressive! I know about making "sound" with a drive but generating video?
