- I must disagree. I have 3.05 in my TT (~2.05 in an ST) and after flipping a dip
- switch (which can be done via a CPX) the "FORMAT FLOPPY" command displays a high-
- density option along with single sided/double sided. (But unfortunately for me,
- all this does is make griding noises in my floppy since I don't have a high-
- density drive :(
