yes. :-) im an electronics and need a programmer.

You can even use a beaglebone black as a platform. But electronics is not the problem. Detecting the right format of a floppy is. And knowledge of different floppy formatting algorythms like FM, MFM, MMFM, GCR and such.

The point where kryoflux got it right is that the decoding is done on the host computer and the device merely is a dual channel digital sampler (clock and data pulses)

i can cook up a decent adapter board in no time to stick as a cape on the beaglebone.
