There are inexpensive floppy emulators available with custom software. Search for "Gotek". You can even modify the basic cheap unit to have a small OLED screen and a rotary encoder for switching among the hundreds of images that you've recorded using your Greaseweazle. The Gotek is essentially a cheap MCU-with some level-shifting logic and a USB port for a pen drive. There is also an emulator for an MFM hard drive. Silicon just keeps marching on... --Chuck
