Post Body

I cut my coding teeth on an Apple IIGS when I was 10 years old, and I would LOVE to be able to run those old programs on an emulator.

Problem is, I have no idea how to turn that old 3.5" floppy into a 2mg file which my IIGS emulator could load (I haven't tried the floppy in 20 years - hopefully it's not corrupted!)

Does anybody know of a service which would let me mail in my floppy, pay some money, and get a 2mg file back?

If no such service exists, do you guys know anybody I might be able to bribe to take a stab at it? If not, is there another forum I should post this question on?

Thanks!

update: I successfully used retrofloppy to get an image of my old AppleSoft BASIC programs from the floppy disk! I'm highly satisfied with the experience. It only cost $7/disk!

Definitely recommended for anybody in this situation.
